This might bode well for FSU in the Auburn match...the Aggies played heads up with Bama and Auburn...and Duke.
I think Florida St wins the BCS Championship game easily. Auburn, IMO, might be the 3rd or 4th best team in the SEC. I think Bama is the best, then a toss up between LSU, So Carolina and Auburn. Of course LSU beat Auburn pretty easily during the season.

If not for a last second touchdown, Auburn would have lost to an 8-5 Georgia.

FSU takes this one IMO.
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

But they didn't.

And that is the beauty of college football....where every game counts.

I was actually trying to bolster your FSU hopes.

Auburn almost lost to a mediocre team....Get it???

Yep Derek...I got it loud and clear. SEC...SEC...SEC. "If you beat our champ it was only because they weren't really our best."

Auburn put up about 300 yards rushing on Bama and nearly 550 on Mizzou in the championship game. They can run the ball.

Bama was over rated it seems..or at least Oklahoma made it look that way. Mizzou looked pretty good to have been beaten by Auburn...and Georgia?

What can I say about Georgia other then the football gods love to smite them.

Clemson did catch Georgia at nearly full strength, thank God, or we'd be hearing about how Clemson only beat them because of all of the injuries.

RE FSU-Auburn...

I think this will be a tough game. You can not stop the Auburn running attack. All you can do is try to limit the damage and outscore them.

I do know this...FSU's defensive front is in the same league as Bama's and FSU has more team speed throughout then Bama. But then again, the war in the trenches will be against the best that FSU will have faced.

While my confidence is not real high, I think that Auburn is going to have trouble defending...a lot of trouble.

Lord. :lol:

I was not chanting SEC SEC...it had nothing to do with the SEC.

I think you non SEC fans sometimes read things that aren't really there.

I'm wanting Auburn to lose. Why would I chant SEC with that????

Never mind... :lol:
