[Wild Turkey]

He scared.

What about Clemson in the championship?

To be fair I'm thinking he meant for this season.
To be honest, that Clemson line isn't worthy of being compared to the greatness that is Brown and Davis.

Auburn’s d-line is filthy.

luckily they don’t play Cincinnati.

Coaches like to talk up their opponents to to try to make a weak schedule look better and CYA if they lose...nothing new here.

Auburn’s defense could win they the game. They would have to win despite their HC though. Remember they don’t have to face Tua either. As much as I hated Steele at LSU, dude has done a great job.

He's not wrong, though that isn't saying much with Bama's schedule. I could see this being like a 17-13 final score.

My brain put an "ever" in there for some reason. It was early.

Barn is legit. They would be the best team and undefeated in the Pac12 and Big12. Would only be a 1 loss team in the ACC.


Honestly I think they are the 6th best team in the country.



But still, fuck them

 

[JuiceTheGator]

Meh, they're ok. Just run short routes and take your time going down the field and there shouldn't be a problem.

They certainly aren't dirty cheaters like LSUx and UGAy.

Well Tenn. has held them to the fewest points this year LOL

So actually to date it would the Tenn. (As sec keeps reminding how hard of a sec schedule they have lol)

I know some may think that this is just pregame coach speak... but in this case what Saban said is true. Auburn does have an elite DL, and maybe the best.

Oh I forgot...

Yeah, Saban is big on CYA, he's been on the hot seat so long it's just second nature to him....

I don't think it is much of a stretch to say Auburn has one of the best D-lines in the country. It was widely regarded to be before the season started and nothing much has changed to alter that.
