Since we've kept such a close eye on Lashley & Knott at Bama, we may as well keep an eye on the Mississippi kids that signed with Auburn. Hall, Handy, Moore
Thus far, only Hall made the depth chart as a 3rd string DE.
It'll be interesting to see if any of these guys pan out.

Moore will either be boom or bust.
That's a veteran O and DL
That o line sucked last year.Quote:

The most impressive Two deep I've seen this year's is LSU. They really have a good looking team on paper.
So coe isn't even a starter. He'd be our best DT by far
I didn't realize Handy was going to qualify. Wasn't that in question?Quote:

That’s a roster that’s gonna get its ass handed to it by Oregon!
I think Brown realized that he could be one of the first DL taken this year or 2nd - 3rd round last year. He made a smart move coming back. He will have to play his way out of the first round this year.Quote:

It seems most schools, other than MS State, gets their signees qualified.Quote:

They return 5 starters- we return 3.
Auburn's OL will be very good and likely better than ours
Auburn is easy money Saturday
Yep. I think the media wants them to be good more than they are. Auburn wins and they will get the media love but they wont be as good as the hype either.Quote:

Our football program is as good as Oregon’s now. They just have an easy schedule and Nike hype.
Our other two OL have a good bit of experience though & Williams is likely the best player out of both OLsQuote:

Auburn has an edge at WR, but I think we'll be much better than a year ago.
If Nix is good THIS YEAR, then Auburn should be better than us. That's a really big IF though
If they become one dimensional, then I think we beat them in a similar game as last year
Agree.Quote:

Auburn has about 4-5 really good DL/OLB types and the rest of their team is average in the SEC. Facts.
THey know just as much about nix as we know about Stevens.....Quote:

Auburn is stacked on the OL and DL. Also, Nix is a dynamic dual threat QB. I think he's going to surprise a lot of you. Auburn's playbook is the size of a two year old's coloring book. The learning curve is simple, and I don't think he'll have an issue with the speed of the game. He'll thrive in Gus's system especially with an OL full of seniors.
Y?all are giving their OL too much credit. Hell all of our top 7-8 guys are upperclassmen. And they didn?t suck last year.
Well first I don't think they will be a contender. Bama wins the west. But the dt's they have coming back make them better on d.Quote:

One fact I did notice... Nick Coe is legit.
Auburn is going to be the best team in the country in the trenches. Their OL and DL is better than ours. And it's not really close. They have 4-5 draft picks starting- we have 2Quote:

The way you describe their team is pretty much 2018 State without the LBs and CBs.

34 loves him some returning starters, even if they sucked last season.
Not sure what Oregon has but I’d take their Sr qb over Auburn’s true freshman.
QB- let?s just call it a pushQuote:

WR- AU (although they aren?t great by any stretch)
TE- State

DL- AU
LB- State

S- push? Although I would take our guys
Again, how is AU a 10 win team and State is a 7 win team given the above and AU?s schedule? They are only much better at DL than State, whereas our back 7 is better and the rest is pretty even. That?s the bottom line.
