He hasn't. But I really have been pretty impressed with him. He's fast. That's an element of an Alabama QB we aren't used to seeing. Of course, they haven't really played any great defenses (WVU was decent), but still.

I was really high on Auburn until tonight. I thought they were the best team in the country. I also thought they would lose 2 games, but that's just because their schedule was so hard.

But I saw a lot of bad things tonight. We will have to see how they rebound against LSU.

It is really wide open and there are no easy games in the West. Auburn could lose at State. LSU could lose at Arkansas. Actually, I'd say one of those two will happen at this point.

Auburn's schedule is too hard for them to win the West, IMO. I've said all along that if LSU wins at Auburn, they'll win the West. If not, I'd favor Alabama. Either way, I think the West winner ends up with 2 losses in conference.

Auburn does have the tie-breaker advantage, though, if it comes to that.
