Eighty percent of the time when a rematch occurs in the SECCG, the winner of the first game wins the championship. That is a statistic.
Auburn has more than stats on our side. We have the intangibles that all great teams must posses to win a championship.
Vegas has us as a 5 point favorite. We don't always cover the spread, but we do win. It's not all we do. We overcome adversity and never quit no matter how far down we get.
We finally get to enjoy a meaningful game from start to finish.
Auburn 48
USC 28

So, the Vegas odds are back up? Word on "da skreets" were they got taken off board because of the uncertainty of Garcia injury.
-
Neither team is the same team that met some 8 or so weeks ago. Auburn has hit it's stride, and gained much confidence through overcoming adversity. USCe has found their offense, but they're still never sure which team will show up.
Coaching edge? Well, both have been in the post season, with championship implications, and both have won...Spurrier edge for having been there as a Header.
USCe, as a program, for whatever this is worth, has never played for anything meaningful.
But, talent wins the day, and Auburn has more.
In our first game vs teh Cocks we unveiled our option run game, and they were not ready and gave up 300 plus rushing yards. However, USCe is the #5 run D in the nation, and #1 in the SEC, but I believe some of that is due to schedule...who they played, and the outcomes. But they're still pretty good.
Auburn will pass it's way to a win vs the 99th ranked pass D in the nation, and Cam will secure the Heisman .
USCe will also score some points, but Garcia will make some mistakes.
AU: 41
USCe: 31

Didn't USC drop from being the number one defense in the SEC to the eighth after our first meeting?
I would expect a similar outcome after this one. Maybe not as far because there is a larger body of work to average from but I have seen nothing to this point that would make me believe that they will stop us.

Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I'm gonna be watching you.

He really cares.
About what, I have no idea.

I also read last night that Lattimore is still nursing a bum leg/knee/ankle injury... doubt he will be 100%.
I am hanging my hat on the fact that MOST OF THE TIME, despite starting well, at some point, Stephen Garcia remembers that he is STEPHEN GARCIA, and he chokes at a critical moment.

All I can think about is Auburn's ability to make backup quarterbacks look like Joe Mantegna.

I am fucking scared to death. I've totally convinced myself that we're going to get our pie hole stomped. I haven't been able to eat since Sunday.
Auburn football is worse for my health than smoking crack, shooting smack, and chewing redman, while living in a house made of nothing but asbestos.

Gentleman, this brings me to my next point: Don't smoke crack.

Crack is whack!

Mr. McDowell, I was wondering if you caught the professional football game last night on television. It was most exhilerating. The Giants of New York beat the Packers of Green Bay by kicking an oblong object made of pigskin through a giant H. It was a most ripping victory.

Jar...
While I myself have quit making score predictions, I don't believe we will be getting our pie hole stomped. This team knows how to win and they know what we need to do.
They won't be overlooking this game.
-
What scares me is that Spurrier is smart enough not to go conservative. I'm not worried about us scoring, I'm worried about us keeping up, which is a stupid thing to think about with our offense. Almost like, whoever has the ball last.

As I've stated...USCe now has our whole body of work to look at offensively. We surprised them with our option run game in the first one...we won't surprise them this time. Still, we have more talent, and we have an OC that can adjust to whatever they have in store for us, in fact he welcomes their adjustments as that's his whole approach to play calling. Bama showed you can take away what most perceive to be the most dangerous part of our offense...Cam running the ball. In doing so, they over-committed, and over-pursued. We burned them with play action passes to the flat off the speed sweep look (hat tip to War Eagle for pointing that out), and with Counter runs. The TD pass to Lutz was set up by the PA passing to the flats. We just have too many ways to answer on offense.
-
I think the real reason you are nervous for this game is that you know what a win represents. I think we all deep down waited for the other shoe to drop. However, Cam kept catching that mother fuckin shoe and preceded to shove it up the other teams ass.
In other words.....this shit just got real!

It's a new era...
These teams have played for BCS Championships:
Tenn, FSU, OU, Va Tech, Miami, Nebraska, LSU, USC, Tex., FL, OSU, Alabama. Of that list, only Va Tech and Nebraska haven't won a BCSC. Va Tech, Neb, Tenn, and Alabama are the only ones to have only played in the game just once.
So, yeah, it's pretty big deal if Auburn joins that elite company.
Fuck you. This shit has been real since the corn dogs.
Interestingly, that's when it got real in 2004 too.
-

Yep. Since the Corndogs, I've been looking at every game as do or die for the MNC. This weekend, we just need Fairley to leg whip Garcia's thumb...then have Demond pull a foreign substance out of his tights and throw it in Alshon's eyes. We goin' Glendale baby.
-

There should be a way for me to work some of that cheezy MTV Real World into this but I have not figured out how yet.

Just got off the phone with my pops and he said he's been told that if AU wins Saturday, he's got two MNC tix coming. And since I'm easily his favorite son.....

Nah...LSU was the third game of the year that year if I remember correctly. In my mind, things didn't start getting real until we shit stomped UT at their place. That was by far the best road trip I have taken to watch Auburn play football...

You may be on to something. SevenDust? It could be pulled off.

That is when I knew that team was for real. I thought they were good up to that point, but when that game was going on, I knew we were for real the best team in the nation.

Since your wife won't let you go to the corner store, much less Arizona, you should sell those tix to me.
-
i'm working various angles to procure tickets.
even at last minute i'll drive.

I don't deal with haters. AND..we almost lost Friday I don't like living on the edge.

Hey how are those National Championship tickets coming?
Good for me.
Probably not so much for you.
After doing a bit of research I was pleasantly surprised to find that each school will get 17000 tickets. Considering that will be slightly more than half of what that stadium will hold I very surprised. Most of the ticket brokers I had already looked through are running about 1k apiece for their worst ticket for that game.
It is beyond me why this site has not figured out a way to scam acquire some press credentials?

Stubhub has them for 500-600 each for upper deck endzone.

If true, I recommend jumping on that. Basically face value, except without the Fiesta & Insight Bowl tickets.

If we win, I'm there. Not buying tickets until Sunday though.

Did you just confuse the Beatles with Simon and Garfunkel?
And that is one thing I thought I would never type on an Auburn football board.

When all is said and done, mine will cost much less than that, big boy.

Stub-Hub Upper Deck Premium $700.00 each Section 445 I am giving this some thought. With Air fare-Hotel-Rent-a-car about $ 3000.00 for the two days. This is the part that sucks living in Dallas and not knowing any season ticket holders.
-
I spoke to the AU ticket office today. They won't have any info on tickets until Monday.

I'm going to shell out for lower level. However, I'm waiting till Saturday to buy them. I don't want to jinx it.
And I'm also scared shitless.

There should be a law that if your team is 12-0 and playing for a shot at the national title, you should get a federally mandated week off, because I'm absolutely fucking worthless at work today, and I don't think that's going to change tomorrow (I don't work Friday, bitches).

It is not going to change. Take heart in knowing that you are not alone in this. Bad enough coming back fro a long weekend but add this to the mix and I ain't getting shit done.

The 5 week anxiety/wait leading up to the BCSNC game is much, much worse. Because I wouldn't wish that kind of emotional pain on my worst enemy, I'm praying yall don't have to go through it.
