    OK wesfau, I will give you the benefit of our experience. At this point, there is only one game on your schedule: Kentucky :thumb:

    I know it's the SEC and wild things happen in college football. But to step back for a second and take an honest look at those teams, I don't see 3 losses. UGA is the scariest of the bunch.

    Of course they were nice. the final score was

    USC 23
    au 0

    How could you not be nice after going in someones house and killing them? I once knew a team that went to a stadium, lost really bad, and then went back and made up bad, bad stories about the teams fans that beat them. You ever hear anything like that????

    If AU went against SC I would pull for the SEC. I think the Bulldogs are going to wax AU as they did us. So, we wont even see SC and AU.

    Auburn Beat UGA.... Mark my words, they get them at home, they are on a roll and the UGA team we saw is not the real UGA team. Nor was that the real LSU team, lets face it, the SEC media Darling beat us by 1 in their house and if we had a FG kicker who can kick PAT's we might be arguing can we do it again with one loss... Fact is Auburn is rolling, they got all the momentum and a schedule like we had last year, all the good teams at home except 1 (Tennesee, like we had Ole Miss on the road)

    Auburn will probably go undefeated until the SECCG, then I dont know what will happen.

    I will cheer for Auburn ANY day over ANY outsider team. The Title in the SEC, thats where it belongs...

    I still don't think 6 teams are going to go undefeated this season, in fact I don't think we will have 2 undefeated teams this season. Upsets happen, you can't predict them or control them. The last time we had more than 2 undefeated teams was 11 years ago. And I don't think all 3 were "BCS conferences" (of course back then there was no BCS, but at least 1 of them were not from what are now BCS conferences). We all know what happened with OU last season, so even at the midway point of this season it's hard to say which teams can run through Oct/Nov undefeated (Oct/Nov are filled with rival type games for all the undefeated teams left).

    Anyway, this is what makes college football so interesting. The battle test of the regular season, being able to play with extremely high expectations every week. Eventually teams will crumble, probably to unlikely teams. Because AU should beat Kentucky you never know if AU will go into that game looking ahead. How do we know AU can beat ALA this year, won't ALA go into that game seeing it as the biggest game of their year . . . with a win defining the team and season. SC, OK, Miami, etc won't have it any easier. Sure, they may be hugely favored to win . . . but that doesn't mean the other team is going to give the game away.

    Understand, I'm a fan of the current bowl system and would only like to see minor changes (no preseason rankings, a CG for every conference, adding more teams to the BCS conferences, better scheduling, etc). However, I know most fans are for the playoff system. I'm just giving my opinion, and I do respect the playoff side of the debate.

    Right.

    You might not care about USC. Many of your brethren LOVE the Condoms.

    Come back after the SECCG and tell us that....

    Now I KNOW you're smokin' rope.
    ANY college fan wants their team to WIN IT ALL.

    What an absolute @ss-whipping by your team...

    Keep smilin', we're gonna put another 31-7 pasting on ya again in TS next year...

    Enjoy NOT being in the Orange Bowl.
    Enjoy NOT winning a NC.

    Proud Tiger? Proud of WHAT? NOT WINNING IT ALL?

    You, sir, are an embarrassment to Auburn fans EVERYWHERE. :dis:
