So is Wisconsin at #15. I guess we'll settle that real quick.


I just don't understand the rankings when I see shite like this. Wisky is losing their ENTIRE FRONT SEVEN. I wonder if people realize that was the reason why they had a good defense last year. They are losing a starting safety, moving the other starting safety to linebacker, and moving a backup safety to QB. They lose their top four pass catchers (1000 yard receiver, 500 yard TE, 300 yard RB) and neither Gordon or Grant can catch out the backfield. They don't attract top recruits (Abbrederis was a walk on), so they have nothing to replace them with.

It's going to be a bloodbath. 42-17

Auburn could have been a 4 loss team last yr. They can't predict those lucky arse plays that won them the majority of their games!


They had one win off luck and one win because Saban was being a retard. They did what they had to do to win all those games they played last year. They ran all over Bama's arse before the FG return.

I do not get the Auburn Hype.

Me either

They were not that good last year.

yes they were.

Who did they beat?

They had as good of wins as anyone else. Who did Florida state beat? Who did Michigan state beat. Who did Oklahoma beat?

quote:

Alabama beat themselves..

That's the only way they've ever lost.

quote:

they won against an overrated Missouri team in the SECCG.

Anyone who wins a division in the SEC isn't really overrated in my book..

Why does everyone think they will be so good?

I think it's "knee-jerk" after giving them the shaft in 2013. They certainly won't be 2012 bad.. but losing Robinson, Ford, and Mason will be very big.

I expect them to be a little more pass heavy and, with QUILLE, I don't blame them. Be very very thankful our backfield is loaded. Just need a semblance of a pass rush.

It's going to be a pretty interesting year!
