Default Congrats to Ro 50, your Tigers are a few wins from South Florida

i will be rooting for Auburn to go to and win the Orange Bowl. I cannot stand USC, and i am neutral on OU. Auburn looked damn impressive today Ro. They shut Georgia down cold. Congrats. I think they made a major statement and will prolly leap over OU in the standings. If they finish the year unbeaten, esp. surviving an SEC title game, they deserve to play for all the marbles.

thanks for the kind words socalbronco.

they played great today. and shut down greene, finally after his years of tormenting us. and pollack, despite that block punt, didnt make that much of an impact.

one more game to go before the sec champ game and its bama. i want to see how things play out before i begin to gripe about the BCS. but i think auburn is just as good as oklahoma and could play against usc tough.

After that game, it looks like Auburn and Tennessee will be playing the the SEC championship game.

Tennessee has to lose it's next 2 games against Vanderbilt and Kentucky and Auburn is either clinched already, or just has to beat Alabama to make it.

Shouod be a fun re-match of the 34-10 whooping auburn put on the Vols earlier in the season.

UT may be w/o their two outstanding freshman QB's. Ainge is out w/ a shoulder separation and Scheffner is out w/ collarbone injury.

AU clinched the west division title a couple of weeks ago w/ their win over Ole Miss.

They are out currently, but even Rick Claussen at QB should beat Vanderbilt and Kentucky.

There is no doubt in my mind that Auburn is the best team in the country, with Oklahoma 2nd.

i just dont want USC to win it. I would prefer Auburn over OU definitely. Devin Aromashodu was a good HS player that was almost a Cane and i would like to see him do well.

Auburn and OU are the best 2 teams in the country, both would give USC absolute fits.

What bothers me the most about USC is their schedule. OU and Auburn both play a good schedule, but USC really needs to bump theirs up because while OU and Auburn have a good enough schedule due to their conferences, USC needs some serious help in the non-conference scheduling.

Auburn has defeated 3 teams while they were in the top 10, #5 LSU, #8 Tennessee, and #6 Georgia, that itself should prove Auburns worth for an Orange Bowl bid.

Wow....Auburn blows over OK in one of the subjective polls and is two points behind OK in the other subjective poll for number 2. Even though Georgia is way over-rated, it was still a great win.

honestly, for me, the national champ would be nice, but all i ever wanted for the Tigers was to win the SEC, something they havent done since the 89 season (the 93 season in which they went undefeated while on probration now withstanding). its been 15 years of frustration, near misses (the 97 SEC champ game where we lost to the Vols, led by Peyton, by one point even though our D forced 6 turnovers and other close misses, the 2000 season, 96 season, and etc.)


I just want the SEC and let the other things play out. its been to damn long for AU fans down here. we havent won the SEC since the days of Pat Dye and Reggie Slack, James Joseph and the others.

I didn't care about the NC in the poll only days....I care somewhat more about the BCS...but what I want the most for my team is the ACC Championship.
