And all I'm saying is, we matched up with both LSU and Auburn equally and destroyed both.Quote:

This isn't about Ole Miss vs State
Some of you are really getting blinded by the 1B numbers that are getting added to our defensive stat sheet. We have a very good defense and an even better offense. TSUN doesn't scare me and hasn't the entire season. Oxford is really not a scary place to play when you compare it to Death Valley. Sorry bears, it just isn't.
CAP is very physical.Quote:

Ultimately everything boils down to us vs. whoever the discussion is about. Since we have already played and beaten Auburn, this is ultimately about us vs. TSUN at the end of the season.Quote:

No one said we would lose to Ole Miss. What we are trying to say is that Auburn is a lot better matchup for Ole Miss than LSU is. And, to add to that, the game is in Oxford.
I don't agree. Lsu was one dimensional. Auburn runs better than lsu, throws better, and is just a flat out better teamQuote:

Auburn is not "smashmouth". And considering Marshall runs it probably 15+ times per game and NONE of those runs from him are "smashmouth", I would say I'm correct. Yes, they run so e downhill plays to Artis Payme, but I acknowledged "some downhill" in my OP. Are you claiming Marshall's designed runs are "smashmouth"? And considering the other undesignied runs of his (which he always has an option to run, so very few are technically "undesigned") are quite often and also not "smashmouth", I'm not sure where I could be getting caught up in "eye candy". Marshall IS their offense, and their is no smashmouth element to Marshall....so how can they be a smashmouth team?Quote:

Auburn IS the better overall team. However, they may not matchup well with OLE MISS. In addition to things pointing out earlier, their secondary is suspect, and guess what? All Ole Miss can do is throw the ball. LSU has a top 3 secondary in the SEC and that is a main reason they shut Ole Miss down.
Oxford is just not a scary place to play IMO.Quote:

Yep, I predicted a big OM win, but wasn't "adamant" about it.Quote:

But USC's offense is pretty good, so hopefully that was more about their O than Auburn's D. I agree with you though...if Auburn's D plays well they can win without their O even having to do much.
I thought Bama would pound them and cover, but didn't run the ball. I stayed away from A&M. It was apparent they weren't that great by that point.Quote:

I don't care what any of you say. You don't lead the sec in rushing by being a finesse team.
Yep. This is the reason I am somewhat suspect of this game. I would not bet it with house money. It's a crap shoot.Quote:

I like auburn to win because of thier defensive line. this goes double with tunsil hurt nad the center out for ole miss. No way bo stays clean this game. And a tackled bo is a bad bo. And bad bo loses games.
Maybe auburn is not as good as LSU but they will score more than 14 on them. I cannot say I see ole miss matching that.
