Haven’t seem them play this year. I know Stidham can sling it, but what can we expect from Auburn?

I think it’s worse but their offense is echelons better which helps their D out.

If Florida had any offense, their defense would be really elite.

Better. Auburn is going to bust Etling up. If he takes off to run like he did yesterday they will dismember him. Brennan better be ready. That will smother us with 16 under center.

Better.

Miss. St. rolled all over LSU. Their offense went through us.

Auburn shut Miss. St.'s offense down.

Auburn's D is very good. LSU needs a passing game to have any chance.

Better. They are stout on defense and were last year too under Steele.

Tie? I'm pretty sure LSU won by 1 point yesterday. But don't let that stop you from pushing your agenda.

I think Floridas defense is better, but Auburns offense is light years better than Floridas.

That's gonna be a problem. With LSUs passing game, it's gonna be hard to neat teams that cas score more than 16 points.

Brennan is going to have to play in one of these games. We have to throw the ball.

Could you imagine Etling trying to throw 20 yard out routes in a 2 minute drill?

Auburn looks to better at the point of attack up front. We had some success pushing Florida's front around and confusing them.

Auburn may not be as good on the back end. If we can soften the front enough to get our QB some time, we should be able to find some open WRs. But, we still have to throw it and catch it.

We're going to need a miraculous defensive scheme to slow them down enough to stay in the game, though. Florida's offense is horrific. Auburn's offense is very well rounded.

MUCH better than UF's. Especially on the ground.

Their DL is stout, you won't see them making that many plays but they are excellent at keeping their LBs clean, who are playing very well for them.

Their D backfield is less talented than ours or UFs, but experienced and well coached. They are also helped immensely by that DL. Two Sr DBs, and a whole handful of So.

They have quite a few TFL too.

At the same time I think mentally the players are in a much better position now than for the MSU game where they went deer in the headlights and packed it in at half time.

Also, let’s not forget, we have Aranda who will dissect Auburn and if the players follow Devin Whites lead anything could happen.

Auburn' defensive coordinator is about to get owned by Canada. He's not exactly a genius!
