    I just think Auburn's playing better football right now. Kenny Irons is a stud back and Cox has been getting the ball to a very good corps of receivers. Bama has NO offense other than Darby and Auburn's defensive line will get to Croyle just as LSU's did.

    I voted for Auburn. Their offense looked better. I think Bama's defense looked better. I would not install Aubie as more than a one pt. favorite.

    It should be a real tough SEC headknocker. I'll try to watch part of it, especially the second half.

    Congrats to Auburn on a fine game against Georgia. The second half was real fun to watch.

    Auburn has:
    a stud RB

    bama has:
    a stud RB

    Auburn has:
    a QB who doesn't panic

    bama has:
    a QB that gets hit

    Auburn has:
    a QB that throws with accuracy

    bama has:
    a QB with no one to throw to

    Auburn has:
    big strong receivers

    bama has:
    injured WO

    Auburn has:
    pretty decent O-line

    bama has:
    Line going to get Brodie killed

    AU has:
    A defense that has trouble covering 6'7" tight ends- bama doesn't have one
    A defense that has trouble with mobile OB's- bama doesn't have one
    A defense that can be run on with a good back- bama has one of those

    bama has a great D

    LSU didn't cover my 30-10 prediction, so let's say 24-13 AUBURN.

    I think Auburn wins it. They have the top offense in the conference. The best running back in the conference, IMO and experienced, big receivers.

    They also have a physical defense. I think this is going to be another great defensive game.

    I just don't know if 'Bama offense will recover from losing Prothro. And even though they have 9 wins, finishing with a 2-game losing streak to end the year will make the great season they had this year seem less.

    Pretty good post, but Auburn ain't gonna put 24 on Bama, assuming the Iron Bowl is sufficient motivation to avoid a post LSU letdown. Bama is due to break out the points machine. I'm glad it wasn't last week. Bama 24-13.
