LSU @ AUBURN

[JLEW1818]

LSU @ AUBURN

Okay lets hear the predictions. I'm calling a game changing fake punt.

Auburn 23
LSU 20

[hgarmorer]

CONFLICT PIGEON!!!!! It will be close but the tigers (uh-oh) will pull it out.
Which on a side note is what Miles pop should have done a long time ago.

[UTsucks]

I have $1000.00 on LSU -3 soooooooooooooooooooooo

LSU 24

Auburn 7:pop:

ahh big spender are we?

[UTsucks]

ahh big spender are we?

We are

Had Florida, Troy and Miami today lets make it 4 winners :P

[sooner518]

LSU - 17
Auburn - 10

SEC snoozefest

[califsooner]

13-9 Tigers.............Auburn!!!

[JLEW1818]

Should be a close one.

[birddog]

17-6 lsu

[Lott's Bandana]

I have $1000.00 on LSU -3 soooooooooooooooooooooo

LSU 24

Auburn 7:pop:

I like that. But to be diff, I'll say 28-10.

[meoveryouxinfinity]

This one is hard. I think LSU wins, but you really can't tell, because they haven't played anyone better than Jenks. But Auburn.. could only manage 3 offensive points at Mississippi State? I know they're not horrible (cue S-E-C chant).. but did you see what Ga Tech did to them today in Atlanta? The Yellowjackets tore 'em apart 7 - 38. I just don't see the LSU defense giving up many points to a team that could not score a touchdown to save their lives last week. Then again, a lot of that was due to turnovers, which will not happen nearly as often at home for Auburn. I hate to pick against the home team,
so..
Auburn 31
LSU 24
...in a fairly surprisingly high scoring game.

[JLEW1818]

55? points ?

[meoveryouxinfinity]

55? points ?

That's the way it happens. They hype it up as a defensive battle and the offenses shine

at least.. i don't want to watch a 3-2 game ... so i can only hope :D :D

[JLEW1818]

agree

Still scoreless, who's the first team to score??

[JLEW1818]

Lil Harvard boy can run.

[JLEW1818]

ahhhhhhhhh


3-0

lsu

[smooth3d]

Auburn 7
LSU 3

[JLEW1818]

Missed Field goal- LSU

[JLEW1818]

That could be the ball game.

I'm still sticking with Auburn winning the SEC

[OUthunder]

I'm one of those geeks who watches the game inside the game. One thing that I've noticed is that all of the LSU DB's are at least 6-2" and faster than hell. They look like an All-Star team of DB's. Both teams have very good cover guys too. This game will be won/loss in the trenches or by a special teams goof/big play.

BTW, does Auburn ever blitz? I haven't seen them blitz one time and they still get to the QB at a decent rate. On the other hand, LSU seems to bring a LB or DB about 3/4 the time but always from a different spot on the field.

I'd love to see how OU would match up against either defense win or lose.

[JLEW1818]

I think Les probably has something up his sleeve.

[NASASooner]

okay, both offenses here need to learn that they're not going to get to the corner on their running plays. The defenses are quicker than the offenses.

[JLEW1818]

took the words right outta my mouth

[StormySooner-IN]

A tick maybe?

[JLEW1818]

I think this theory of SEC teams being so damn good, is all mental.

[JLEW1818]

WOW. WE GOT A BALL GAME . THAT LUCKY SON OF A BEACH QB


HIS EYES WERE CLOSED

[JLEW1818]

THERE IS THE TRICKERY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I NEW IT WAS COMING

[SelmaBamaFan]

Question:

Are the defenses on these two teams that good, or are the offenses that bad? How would an experienced QB fair against these teams?

[ousooners182]

god damn i hate lsu..seriously.
but im not sold on either of the teams offense..

[ousooners182]

i mean they have playmakers of course but just..not really sold on them for sec play

[OUthunder]

If LSU wins this game I'm gonna start drinking whiskey.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Auburn's D is starting to wear down. TBH (and I know Homey is going to rip me for this), but Auburn plays with a lot of emotion in big games like LSU and a lot of times that can hurt them at the end of the game.

Still hope Auburn wins (did I just say that?)

[kevpks]

Not LSU again. Why???? They just won't go away.

[OUthunder]

Tommy Tupperware is waaaaaaay to conservative for my tastes.

[NASASooner]

Question:

Are the defenses on these two teams that good, or are the offenses that bad? How would an experienced QB fair against these teams?

Looks like Auburn's offense just isn't very good yet with the new offense. LSU's o-line is now wearing the Auburn defense down. Neither of these teams looks like national contenders to me. The other side of the EsecPN conference looks better with Florida & Georgia.

[kevpks]

Les will fake the field goal like an idiot...and it will work.

[OUthunder]

I hate Les Miles as much as the next OU fan, but he gets er done in big games.

[SelmaBamaFan]

It's hard to tell because, honestly, its two different brands of football btwn the East and West. The West is more old school with smash mouth offenses (boring etc) and talented defenses. The East is all about flash and points. It's really hard to compare the two until they match up on the field.

[OUthunder]

Florida State, heh.

[kevpks]

Yes!!! I can't bring myself to say "war eagle" but yes!!! Down with LSU!

[OUthunder]

Over pursuit.

[kevpks]

Florida State, heh.

Yeah I thought they were "back" this year. I guess the juggernaut at Wake is just too much to handle.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Hey! I like Wake, but I've always liked the 'little guy'.

[OUthunder]

Florida State had SEVEN turnovers, heh.

[kevpks]

Hey! I like Wake, but I've always liked the 'little guy'.

I have nothing against Wake I just think it is hilarious that they have been dominating the ACC "superconference"

[sooner59]

21-20 Auburn

[OUthunder]

TD AUBURN, HEH.

[NASASooner]

If Auburn can keep the pace quicker they will do much better.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Dammit, can the stadium just catch on fire? Then everyone wins!

[NASASooner]

Dammit, can the stadium just catch on fire? Then everyone wins!

When I'm faced with a similar situation as you are in this game, I usually root for a meteor to hit the stadium.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Well there's a part of me that wants LSU to win, well, because they are playing Auburn. The other half wants the Iron Bowl to return to its past glory, so that half is pulling for Auburn.

Plus OU is my second favorite team so I naturally hate Les :D

That tipped the scales and is why im pulling for Auburn lol (god i said it again!)

[OUthunder]

I've got a bad feeling about the outcome of this game.

[NASASooner]

oops. That punt may doom Auburn.

[tommieharris91]

And with this week's happenings, okie state will likely be put in the top 25.

[SelmaBamaFan]

This is a pretty entertaining game considering I hate both the sumbiatches!

[OUthunder]

Auburn might not see the ball on O again.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

With a 1 point lead and 4 minutes left, Auburn went into a prevent offense, then makes a bad punt to tigerbaits. Rut-roh!

[SelmaBamaFan]

HOLY S***

[NASASooner]

well, maybe it was good that Auburn didn't use thier time outs since LSU scored with some time left.

[OUthunder]

CRAP!

[SelmaBamaFan]

You mean Les was smart enough to go for 2? He must use a chart...

[NASASooner]

Squib kick off for good Auburn field position?

[sooner59]

Auburn is in a tough situation with their average offense.

[NASASooner]

AU really needs to roll the QB out to get a big pass play. Or a roughing penalty will do.

[RUSH LIMBAUGH is my clone!]

Roughing passer on tigerbaits

[SelmaBamaFan]

He almost fumbled that, that woulda been HUGE!

[sooner59]

Their offense is inept.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Hope its that way in November too! :D

[OUthunder]

Halzle could start for Auburn.

If we could get a matchup against USC I think most people would finally come to terms with it. :)

[SelmaBamaFan]

To be honest, the SEC is just the same as the BIG XII. The difference? The SEC just scored a huge contract with ESPN, in other words we are now their nest egg.

IMO, you guys shouldnt be hating the SEC, but hating the BIG XII for not getting a big time deal done with a major media outlet. Sure you play 2:30 REGIONAL games on ABC, but considering the talent and tradition your conference has, that just dont cut it. You need to be on prime time, ESPN, ABC, CBS, NBC... SOMETHING.

The reason everyone thinks the SEC is better is because they SEE the SEC.

I don't think you're going to see that change. Most folks(Mostly the "under 30 crowd") over here will continue to dis the SEC.

[TUSooner]

It kinda hurts to say this, but USC might look merely human against a fast, smashmouth SEC defense like LSU's. Even so, I don't think the SEC has any offense that could keep up with SC's

[SelmaBamaFan]

I think Florida's offense could hang with 'em, but they dont have a top notch defense like the teams in the West.

[JLEW1818]

I don't think the SEC offensives do crap.

All I know is, OUr Defense can't screw up at all this year.

Good points. FWIW, last season I posted that the Big XII needed a better PR machine to promote the quality of its better teams. Along similar lines, what's up with the "SEC" chants by the crowds SelmaBamaFan? Shouldn't you just be rooting for your school(s)?

[cheezyq]

I think Florida's offense could hang with 'em, but they dont have a top notch defense like the teams in the West.

Is it REALLY top notch defense, though, when you're offenses are just crap? If the only offense capable of scoring points with regularity is Florida, then you don't have a true measuring stick until you face Florida. Lord knows the SEC wont' schedule games against real non-conference opponents for fear of tarnishing the "we beat each other up" image.

Not that the Big 12's schedule has been top-notch either, but we don't go pulling the "conference is too tough" excuse, either. Seriously, if you're conference is so damn good, why don't you go prove it? Why are you afraid to go to a ranked team's house and show the world how good/bad you really are?

Don't get me wrong, the SEC IS good. But the way LSU fans and the like run their mouths, you'd think the SEC was soliciting for entry into the NFL.

[JLEW1818]

Maybe the entire SEC sucks!

Yeah, that is because they're all brain warshed down there. You never hear any other yelling INSERT CONFERENCE NAME HERE.

[SelmaBamaFan]

To be bluntly honest?

It's because 80% of the south still think the rest of the nation is against them, so they feel they need to justify themselves by being a part of something great. Might not be the 'politically correct' answer, but Id say its true. I think every Southern Bama fan will tell you why football means so much in the south, and the SEC chants are a stem from that.

[Johnny Utah]

[Sabanball]

guys,

If you're upset with the way the SEC is portrayed in comparison to your own conference, don't blame the fans and member institutions down in the South--blame your own media and the Big 12 Conference Office for doing a **** poor job of promoting your league.

Well Im not going to defend the SEC on this, but I will defend my school. We played FSU last year (and lost, ofcourse), Clemson this year (who I dont think is as bad as we made them look), and are opening with Virginia Tech next year... ALL at neutral sites. We have Penn State scheduled... sometime, they keep moving it back. We had Notre Dame schedule til they cancelled it. We played you guys back when we were on probation for christ's sake. As a whole the SEC are indeed p**** when it comes to OOC scheduling, but Bama aint ;)

Like I said in another thread though, its soooo hard to compare this kind of stuff because of different styles of play. The REAL debate should be what style of play is the best?

[Sabanball]

I DON'T GIVE A **** ABOUT OUR LEAGUE. When its all said and done I care about Oklahoma ONLY.

Umm...let me get this straight--as a fan of OU, you DO NOT care about what the Big 12 does as a conference?

[JLEW1818]

I'm not dogging BAMA at all. I actually would like to see you guys win the SEC.

As far as conference goes IDC. Oklahoma is all I worry about.

[bluedogok]

I like to see the other Big 12 schools do well out of conference because it helps OU in the polls just like it has for the SEC schools over the years. I do have to say that I rather enjoyed when Arkansas beat Texas here in Austin a few years ago, it was the only other school that I really considered but the much cheaper in-state tuition kept me at OU....and a Texas loss is still enticing most of the time.

[SelmaBamaFan]

In other (politically incorrect) words you mean still fighting the Civil War?

Not going to get into specifics, because this is a football thread. But you do make a good point. I'll put it this way, its the same reason Southern folks hate Yankee folk, even though I've practically lived in the north and you know what? They aint that bad.

[JLEW1818]

BAMA is probably the one SEC school that has a very strong legacy. The others really didn't start getting good until they a) integrated, b) lowered admissions standards for athletes, c) paid coaches a gazillion dollars, etc.

[Sabanball]

If you do a little research, I think you'll find that, in addition to Alabama, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Auburn, and LSU ALL won NC's before forced integration in the South. I don't think any other major conference even comes close to that number of member schools being able to make that same claim...

Bottom line - most of the Big 12, I don't hate. UT, KSU, and OSU...I pretty much hate them at varying levels. MU is making a strong case for my hatred, too. Everyone else, I'm indifferent, and I root for them solely for the purpose of improving OU's SOS and overall perception. But just because I don't hate KU, NU, Baylor, etc. doesn't mean I'm willing to chant "Big 12, Big 12" when OKLAHOMA SOONERS win. It's BOOMER SOONER all the way. That's what's so LAME about the SEC chant.

Resident Bama fan makes a strong case for them not scheduling wusses, though my only question is - how many ROAD games? The funny thing is that I don't care if the SEC schedules high school teams or the local peewee league, just don't use the lame excuse that the SEC is so tough. Otherwise I'm going to call you out, asking why, if you're so tough, you're so scared to play good non-con teams.

Why not? After all, we had an unprecedented 5 teams in the top 10 this week. You dont get much tougher than that.

Because you're basically calling yourselves a bunch of wusses. It's reverse trash talk. Unfortunately the morons that run the polls hear that crap on TV and think, "hmmm....that must mean they're very good". It doesn't mean garbage. It means you're too scared to schedule REAL competition outside your conference, especially on the road.

Again, I have nothing against the SEC, and they're certainly top 2 at least. But until you can put up wins on the road against top competition, I'll still call BS on SEC "dominance". I'd count the GA win over ASU in the list of good road wins, but for the time being ASU looks like a bottom feeder in the worst league in college football.

[SelmaBamaFan]

Nah worst league is the ACC easily. Oh wait that takes away Bama's quality win. ACC RULES!!!
