Auburn gave Spurrier and Meyer trouble, too. :sigh: Although I did attend a game in The Swamp where SpurDog blew them out something like 35-0 at halftime. That was fun.

Auburn has always been a thorn in our side. I'm still pissed at that 01 loss at Jordan-Hare in the loving swirling wind and rain. I was on a Vilano Beach fall break trip and got loving waaaaasted watching that one.

I think we were the only team capable of challenging Miami that year--just couldn't get past Auburn and that 9/11 delayed Travis Stephens game against UT (:barf:).

Our pass rush is good and we might be able to put the screws to the run game but our DBs are loving terrible. I think Henderson and Zuniga are back this week so maybe that will help, but I'm not sure how the hell we score in the first place :shrug:.

Has potential to get ugly for us.

Minnesota is kind of fun. Their receivers are awesome and they play only close games. Also it’s a maybe watch, not a must watch.

MSU-OSU being a maybe is disrespectful! We’re probably going to get smoked but you never know!

Agreeing with this. I don't think MSU can hang with OSU at all and my call is 30-3 OSU. But it'll be interesting to see how MSU's defense can contain OSU.

Every Minnesota game this year has been a one score game that came down to the final few minutes. Though they did finally manage to go into the 4th quarter with a lead last week for the first time all season.

Basically they are probably the worst undefeated team in the country by a pretty wide margin and every game is an opportunity to see if this is the week they finally fall off the ridiculous tight rope they've been walking. Especially because the schedule sets up in a way that makes them being the worst 8-0 team of all time a real possibility.

I don’t know why they’ve had so many off lines this year. Seems like they have one at deadline every week that everybody else already has a line for.

Yeah, it was Army doing the "steal the mascot" thing.

quote:

In November, Aurora suffered injuries to both wings when she was abducted by West Point cadets in a prank gone wrong ahead of the Air Force-Army game. Army and Navy have a long tradition of stealing each other's mascots ahead of games, but no one had previously been able to take an Air Force falcon.

Two West Point cadets took Aurora and another Air Force falcon, threw sweaters over them and stuffed them into dog crates, the school's falconry team adviser told The New York Times last year. The cadets turned over the birds the next morning, with Aurora's wings bloodied -- likely from thrashing inside the crate.

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/27755074/air-force-academy-23-year-old-falcon-mascot-aurora-dies

I'll have to ask my brother (who's a West Point alum) what the fallout was. He was of the opinion at the time that these goobers would be kicked out of the academy.

Auburn's defense is really good but also I'm pretty sure Mississippi St sucks after their entire defense went to the NFL last year. The timing of Mullen leaving really sucked for them, I think they could have been a NY6 type team with him, but Fitzgerald was useless in an offense that needs to QB to be something other than a glorified fullback.

And yet A&M is still going to find a way to lose to MSU for the fourth year in a row.
