Auburn VS Alabama - Your Predictions ?

I was going to pick Alabama, either way :wave3:
After that complete azz whupping you guys did on Florida especially. Ingrahm is a load, a true Power back, and I think the Alabama QB is way underrated too. I dont know WTF happened in South Carolina, but welcome to the SEC.
We all beat each others butts, and some team out west gets the national championship.
Boise State may get knocked off by Nevada, LOL
I wish. Not that they aren't any good, cause they are.
But look at who they play ?
 
I just read this.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP)—No. 9 Alabama can just relax and play ball.
No national championship shot potentially hangs in the balance, no Heisman Trophy chances are on the line. It’s No. 2 Auburn’s turn to feel the heat in Friday’s Iron Bowl.
“Those guys are undefeated and going to the SEC championship game,” Crimson Tide tailback Mark Ingram said. “If they win out, they’re going to play for the national championship. All the pressure is on them. It’s like reversed roles.”

Alabama (9-2, 5-2 Southeastern Conference) entered the last two meetings unbeaten and in national championship contention, winning both times. Now, Cam Newton and the Tigers (11-0, 7-0) are the surprising SEC West champions and two wins from playing for it all.
And once again, this feverishly intense, 365-day-a-year bragfest can captivate much of the college football nation—not just the state. For all its statewide glory, the Iron Bowl hasn’t pitted two top 10 teams against each other since 1994.
For added measure, it also features last year’s Heisman Trophy winner Ingram and this season’s leading contender in Newton, the electrifying Auburn quarterback who injects even more pizazz into the rivalry.
He has spent the last three weeks under the spotlight for questions about his status amid allegations his father solicited a six-figure payday from Mississippi State when that school was recruiting Newton.
It hasn’t kept him off the field, or slowed him down so far.
Assuming his status hasn’t changed, that’s one of those “external factors” Tide coach Nick Saban refers to as potential distractions.
Opposing defenses still haven’t been able to stop the 6-foot-6, 250-pounder, who has been lethal both passing and running, juking and bulldozing defenders.
“Every little crease you give him, he will take it,” Tide defensive end Marcell Dareus said. “He has deceptive speed where he can just get out and then get away from people. He has some moves that he can get away. We are just going to have to try our best to contain him. It’s hard to just stop Cam.”
The Cam factor is only one reason this has been one of the more anticipated Iron Bowls in recent memory. It might have featured two national title hopefuls, but Alabama fell at No. 6 LSU three weeks ago.
Still, it’s no coincidence that stores statewide are advertising “Pre-Black Friday” sales instead of banking on game day shoppers. The term “Black Friday” takes on a different meaning for those on the losing side in a state where Iron Bowl neutrality is strongly discouraged.
“The state is going to shut down when this game is played,” Auburn guard Mike Berry said.
The Tigers might be vying for a national title, but they still haven’t wrapped up No. 1 in the state. Alabama is a 4 1/2 -point favorite.
“Even though we’ve had a winning record this year, people still expect us to lose,” Berry said. “We still carry that as a chip on our shoulder.”
Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy isn’t ready to yield state supremacy.
“We’ve done pretty well over the past few years, and we have obviously walked away with a lot of trophies and a lot of rings and things of that nature,” McElroy said. “But this year we are obviously playing for something a little different. We understand that, but what we’re playing for is still something very impactful on the season.
“We can walk away feeling very good about ourselves with a 10-2 regular season. That is no easy task in the SEC.”
The Tide has been dominant at home, winning 20 in a row to match the second-longest home winning streak in school history. Alabama has allowed only 39 points in six home games.
The school certainly picked a good year to enlarge the stadium to 101,821.
The Tigers have most of their marquee games at home and struggled at Kentucky and Mississippi State. However, Auburn has won six of the seven meetings in Tuscaloosa, the lone loss a 36-0 humbler two years ago that ended Auburn’s six-year reign.
That signaled the wide gap between the two programs in Saban’s second year. Gene Chizik has Auburn breathing down the Tide’s neck in his own Year 2.
Now, that’s heat Alabama can feel.
“You just want to keep it going,” Dareus said. “The legacy of the Crimson Tide runs deep in the state of Alabama and we have to keep it going. I don’t think we want to be the ones to stop it, just do the best we can to keep the spirit going.”

I must admit, I am more of an Alabama fan then an Auburn Fan. I seldom pay Auburn any attention, except for Tampa Running Back Cadilac Williams being from Auburn.
I just watched tape of this Cam Newton Guy though,, and holy jesus, he is like Michael Vick and Vince Young rolled into one.
No wonder why Auburn is undefeated.
Game starts in 3 minutes!!!!!!!!!!
 
Auburn getting SPANKED 21 to nothing, at this moment.
It looks like a college team playing junior high school.
TOTAL Domination of Auburn, almost not even worth watching :boring:
 
As long as both of them teams tear each other up it does not matter to this Gator. Actually I had to come back to edit. I am pulling for Auburn to spank Bama because in a round about way it will be from a one time Gator.

Oregon
TCU
Boise State

I know that makes me a turn coat of sorts, but want to see one of those teams be in the big dance. I do want the other to be Auburn to represent the SEC and let the chips fall where they may. I am torn though because I have liked the Ducks behind my Gators since the early 90's when I went to a game with a friend out on the west coast. Love those ducks calls in a packed stadium.
 
Well, Auburn beat Alabama in what has to be THE biggest Choke of all time ?
I stopped watching the game because Bama was sooo far ahead, then could not believe my eyes. Auburn pulled it out and won.
Now, Oregon is playing, and Boise State plays later tonite.
Nevada is ranked number 19, and at home, we shall see what happens ?

No Joke? I think it was 17-0 when i went to bed. Finally. Nevada is probably the Sec equivilant of Kentucky.


After yesterdays game I say go ahead and call the season off and give the trophy to Auburn.

I swear, I flat turned the auburn alabama game off when it was 24 to zip, went and ate me sum BBQ !
I came back and asked WTF ?

Nevada is 11 - 1 but not BCS bowl eligible automatically because they in a "weak conference"

This is exactly why there needs to be true playoffs in college football.
What many do not realize is that there are some good college football teams out West.

IF we had a playoff system, it would eliminate all the speculation of who would beat who.
 
I have been a SEC team supporter since the early 70's starting when I was a child. Auburn is a good team, but to just give it to them when there is a power house offense like Oregon would be premature.

The Ducks have that Ali rope a dope type of scheme. They will make your defense tire out until you cant keep your guys up.
