    AUBURN, Ala. "" It's September, and two Southeastern Conference division rivals with legitimate national title hopes are meeting in a high-stakes game with compelling story lines.
    What else is new?
    Here's the twist: It's No. 3 Auburn vs. No. 6 LSU and a rivalry doing its best to emerge as this decade's version of Florida-Tennessee in the 1990s.
    Then again, the seventh-ranked Gators and 13th-ranked Volunteers play in a significant game Saturday night, too. One day, two games, four highly ranked teams from the same league.
    "It's a big day for the SEC," Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville said.
    Well, yeah.
