Play each other each year and you're Conference Champs or Runner Up. PLAYOFF eligible.
How about they just win the championship for winning that game?

SummerofGeorge is a great poster, and I wouldn't say that for many here.

Safety Bryce Anderson from A&M is visiting on Saturday. Former Top 100 recruit out of HS who was a multi-year starter but got injured and barely played this season.
Sounds like a great player, Safety is one of the positions that hasn't really been hit by the portal though. Maybe some of the Safeties can play CB.

There were 4 yesterday to make statements of coming back. 5 Total so far, all on the Defense. Riddick, Jourdin Crawford, Autry, Elijah Melendez and Xavier Atkins.

I expect guys that got a dose of reality in the portal and ask to come back and they are retained for depth.
I could see that. But also not sure if they would allowed back. I guess it all depends on how this portal goes for Auburn. I think the big question is, how many does players does Auburn need in the portal? 30-ish?

Im gonna guess 5 guys come back that have entered the portal from Auburn
Who do we want back? Cam Coleman would be great, but I just don’t think it’s happening.
Jay Crawford and Amaris Williams would be great back.
Some OL guys maybe for depth. Did any of these OL guys in the portal play besides Chaplin?
Duece would be great to have, but I just don’t see it working.
Woodyard is great, but also think the LB group is the best returning group on the team.

Good news for all of us!
Also, I hear the Tennessee system doesn't translate to the NFL for WR talk too. But Tennessee has had 4 WR draft picks in 4 years. 3 while Golesh was OC.
Velus Jones Jr. - Drafted 3rd Round, #71 Overall, 14th WR taken.
Jalin Hyatt - Drafted 3rd Round, #73 Overall, 10th WR taken.
Cedric Tillman - Drafted 3rd Round, #74 Overall, 11th WR taken.
Dont'e Thornton - Drafted 4th Round, #108 Overall, 16th WR taken.
Chris Brazzell II - Projected as late 1st round, early 2nd round pick.

I mean, no one wants to go to Birmingham or Shreveport.
It's all about the $$$. While not many people care to go or watch these bowl, they still make money.
Google for economic benefit for Birmingham Bowl:
quote:
The game brings in substantial visitor spending, benefiting hotels, restaurants, and other local businesses, with recent estimates projecting over $9 million in impact for the 2025 event alone.
The 2024 season Birmingham Bowl (Georgia Tech vs Vanderbilt) had 4.05M Viewers.
While fans may want more meaningful bowl games, the money speaks more than what fans want.

Will it be televised like NSD was, or do we just have to get out info from X?
Its a 15-day process. But I feel Auburn needs names fast for momentum. Some players will take visits during this process.
I wouldn't be surprised to see like a 14 day visit process followed by a transfer signing day in the future. TV would probably push for that.

Hoppin' John (luck), Pork Tenderloin (health), Cabbage (money), and Cornbread (gold) as usually for New Year's.
I also went to bed at halftime last night thinking Ole Miss was dead in the water after the bad time management to end the half. :lol: Had to wake up and watch the Highlights.

instead of kicking two long field goals
That Ole Miss kicker is a stud. He was 1-2 from 50+. And hadn’t even attempted one from 50+ since September. Staff trusted him to make them and he did.

I doubt any team would pay that for a WR. Did any QBs get 4M for 2025 season?
I think Jeremiah Smith at Ohio State made 3.5M, and would be the highest paid WR. But that’s coming off a National Championship year.

Auburn has a kicker in the portal. Go get him! :lol:

Also, if Oregon beats Indiana, could they leapfrog the teams ahead of them, ala, Miami in the early 1980s when they beat Nebraska in the Orange Bowl and went from No. 5 to No. 1 in the final polls?
1983 season, Auburn claims that one now. Auburn(#3) won the Sugar Bowl. #1 and #2 both lost their bowl game.

An "Elite" program does not have a losing record against their rivals.
quote:
Georgia - Auburn 65-56-8 46.3%
We've squandered away this record. It was tied in 2014. Georgia has owned Auburn hard for about 2 decades now.
quote:'
Alabama - Auburn 52-37-1 41.6%
From 1981 - 2020 (Pat Dye's first year until Malzahn's final year) the record was tied 20-20.
So I think we can say we can compete with the "Elite".

They’ve fired 2 coaches in 1.5 seasons and 2.5 seasons
How are you ever gonna build a consistent program doing that? I bet Golesh is canned by 2028 as well because they are lunatics on the Plains
Only 6 of 16 SEC coaches have more than 3 seasons at their team currently. Gus coached for 8 seasons. Kirby is the only coach that has been at their current team for more than 6 seasons.
