Tebow did not account for 85 percent of floridas offense.. putting "all of your eggs in one basket" makes it so much easier for us...
If they played any sort of defense id be much more worried, but 1 elite offensive player will never > an elite defense.

The game is going to be a close one. I still like Les's coaching staff out coaching Auburn on this one. If we lose it will because of too many self inflicted mistakes on our part. You cannot completely shut down any talent like Newton. But you can contain him enough to win the game with a good defense which is what we have. I see Jarrett Lee throwing for over 300 yards on Auburns Defense with Ridley and Ford running for at least 170 yards. Auburn will not score more then 27 points on the day.

I haven't personally spoken to any Tiger fans who don't think Newton is great. On the other hand a lot of Au fans think the LSU defense is a fluke and just hasn't played anyone to compile their lofty ratings. The truth is LSU hasn't played anyone as good as Auburn offensively and Auburn has not played anyone even close to LSU defensively. Strength against strength battles between fairly even foes usually boils down to turnovers and special teams play. This game will probably fall into that category as well.

Yeah, be careful guys! If we (the fans) underestimate Cam Newton while we are watching the game on TV, he might feel the vibe from us and start playing even better!
