If we don't beat those guys this year, we'll never beat them again. Theyhaven't upgraded personnel-wise,got new offensive and defensive coordinators, and we get them at home.

Up and down season. Lose to Vandy in a trap game, upset A&M and Georgia. Can't pencil us in winning this game after doing so the past two years and getting burned.

Lots of questions on offense with a new coordinator. They will be about like last year.

From casual message board cruising, it seems the aubies will be displeased with anything less than 9 wins.

Clemson, UL Monroe, Bama A&M and NM St. out of conference.

[EAVdog]

Wins are ULM, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Vandy, New Mexico, Alabama A&M.

End up in the Music City Bowl against North Carolina. Total attendance about 15 people.

[Maroon Eagle]

Agreed.

[DawgatAuburn]

Since 2010, I have tried not to engage in much football talk with them. The combination of signing Cam Newton, beating us barely, then running the table to win it all just about did me in. In all, I only sat through nine home quarters of the championship team's season. Last year the only AU game I attended was the State game,which was just another dagger. This year I might hit up the LSU game just for the pleasure of it.

So what do they think? I guarantee you they aren't expecting a loss in Starkville. They've convinced themselves, probably rightly, they will be better on defense with Van Gorder instead of Roof, and some feel like they will be better on offense too despite the lack of an established QB and a RB who can get the tough yard that McCallebb probably can't get between the tackles. I can see everything from 5-7 to 10-2 happening for AU this year, but 10 is really pushing it. I think 9 is fairly realistic, but I suspect when the dust settles they will be 8-4 and most Auburn fans will claim that's what they were expecting and that it was a good season with two new coordinators, even after the Sabanites sodomize them in T-town.

Chizik looks more like the guy that went 5-19than the National ChampCoach #180000

[PineGroveBulldog99]

Wins: ULM, Miss, Vanderbilt, New Mexico State, Alabama A & M

Losses: Clemson, Mississippi State, LSU, Arkansas, TAMU, Georgia, Arkansas

[CadaverDawg]

Wins = La Monroe, Ole Miss, Vanderbilt, New Mexico St, Ala A&M, and either Texas A&M or UGA

[OMlawdog]

I really think they will win between 6-7 games next year and Chizik will be on the extreme hot seat in 2013. National championships don't really give you as much street cred as they used to. Miles was on the hot seat in 2009 only a few years after a National Title, and if Chizik goes 7-5 or 6-6 this year, AU fans will be ready for a change.

There are a lot of smart AU fans that realize that the Cam Newton year was a lightening in a bottle. It was the perfect match between QB and Offensive Coordinator, and a defense that played just good enough to win. I wasn't impressed with Chizik at Iowa State, I wasn't impressed with him in 2009, and last year our game against AU was actually competitive for more than a quarter which tells me all I need to know about how good they were.

I think they will miss Dyer, they still don't have a QB, and going to a traditional offense will really help teams like Ole Miss, Vandy and MSU either stay close or beat them. MSU didn't struggle against traditional run right at you offenses, and I don't expect them to this year. If you are going to run right at teams and try to out physical your opponent you better have LSU or Bama talent. Auburn simply isn't there yet, despite thinking they are. It really should be an interesting year on the plains.

[Repeat Offender]

1-4 and I do believe that Vandy will get them this year. Wins are Ole Miss and the three OOC games. Auburn is probably the most important game on our schedule and the same goes for them concerning this game. If they lose to Clemson and us, they will basically guarantee themselves a 1-4 start. At that point, all hell will break loose in the Auburn "family" and in the locker room. If they are 2-4 heading into the Vandy game, I don't see them getting fired up for the Dores. On the flip side, Vandy is a much improved football team that will be fired up to play the Tigers at home. At 2-5 with the Aggies coming to town, theChizik party will be officially over. I am predicting a shitty season for them regardless of their recruiting prowess over the past few years.

[columbiadawg2]

W's -us, ULM, Ole Miss, Vandy, A&M, NMSU and Alabama A & M

After the last 2 seasons I refuse to pick us to beat Auburn ever again.
