The first is if FSU turns it over 2-3 times

i would say +2 or 3 in turnover margin... our offense is not scared to give it up... we are pretty average in turnover margin.

Let's be frank. AU's defense is pretty much garbage. We're talking a Clemson type defense. If AU doesn't get pressure in some way on Winston, it's going to be a long night for AU because FSU will just kill the clock.

Not really. I expect our defense to make a few stands wherein they look like a high end defense. I won't be surprised if FSU outscores AU in a high scoring game, but I will be surprised if FSU puts up a huge number in a game that isn't a shootout.

I'm interested to see what Gus has in store. I can't imagine he's going to deviate from what has worked, but scheming for Gus is a nightmare. People continue to act like this zone read with Marshall is his bread and butter as a coach. It isn't, it is just the aspect of the offense we were dominant with given Marshall's short prep time for the season. I expect we'll have something in store with an additional month of prep, although like I said, I can't imagine we're going to go in a totally different direction.

Keys for Auburn, IMO, are to get at least periodic pressure on Winston, avoid fumbles, and make FSU work for yards. I think they'll get yards, but limiting the easy ones will help give our D the opportunity to do what it does (tighten up in key spots) and help keep our shite together long enough to bring it to the wire.
