    Obviously, we will know a lot more about Bama after this next Saturday playing UGA. Bama is almost always overrated but this year could be an exception. They are doing what they are supposed to do against bad teams.

    We are definitely NOT the #9 team in the country. We are very young and made some VERY VERY youthful mistakes against Arky. Arky was just so bad those mistakes didn't cost us the game.

    Our first real test is this Saturday. It could get ugly. :(

    This thread needs to revisited.

    Auburn looked like total garbage against a terrible Tennessee team.

    It is a long season and we haven't beaten LSU or Auburn in five and six years respectively. The torch will be passed when we beat them and continue to beat them. It's September and a lot can happen by the time November gets here. This is the SEC.

    Bye Bye Auburn....
    I know Auburn starts slowly to start the season but like I told my buddy.
    I think this is the year the torch is passed from AU to Bama.
    Honestly, would you take Saban or Tubberville?
    That is a no brainer in my book, recruiting, coaching, etc.

    Bama is on fire and Au is trying to survive.
    I know its a long season and the opposite can happen later but I'll bet on Saban's team.
    I think Tubby screwed up with switching out offensive coordinators.
    Au looks lost at times on offense.
    They definitely didn't play as well today as they did against us.

    LOL!!! Yeah I heard that. Shaun sipped on a lot of the Crimson Kool Aid at halftime. I'm very proud of the progress our team has made but know that we're still building and haven't "arrived" just yet. If we're still playing like this in November then I might pull out my crotch grabbin' pants but until then I'll just be happy with tonight. ROLL TIDE!!!

    I think if I were Bama I wouldnt read this post. LOL Auburn is always tough for them and vice versa. auburn could swim up and bite them in their AZZ at any time. Again Saban isnt bear bryant. those days of dominance are long gone from the SEC. is bama better? well yes we knew saban would improve them. I wouldnt take them lightly, but I wouldnt take Vandy or Ole Miss lightly either, welcome to the SEC
