and to be honest, it has more to do with wanting to see Boise St. in the championship game than anything else. I want to see if Boise can win the whole thing and if they can't then everyone can put to bed the "should they or shouldn't they" have a chance to play for the National Championship argument.
The TIDE didn't show up today, from what I've seen so far this first half, offensively and defensively,, Should be the Alabama TSUNAMI !!!
I want something funky to happen that forces a playoff in the future. Then, maybe college football will be a real sport.
TCU>Boise St.
Even if Auburn loses Boise won't be in the title game.
if Boise beats Nevada, they leap TCU IMO.
TCU's best win frankly sucks, and the MWC sucks. the best win as a conference for the MWC is TCU beating two-loss Utah that got railed by Notre Dame.
the MWC is 1/22 against the AP Top 25, a .04% win %, and they are 0-21 againts non-MWC Top 25 teams
like the wac is better...but anways, its a mute point.....oregon beats either team
this game is over....somewhere suprbeast is weeping in a corner
I have a feeling Nevada may pull the shocker.
the WAC is slightly better lol, they have two wins against AP Top 25 teams, and 1 win against non-WAC AP Top 25 wins. (Boise beat VT).
Boise's schedule is better than TCU's now that we know Utah blows.
Its 24-7 at the half.
but take away three Bama mistakes and its 42-7.
but trust me, im ECSTATIC at the score right now. Its far far far far from over, Auburn's offense is way too good for Bama to come out and coast. We are in for a half for the ages.
****
second offensive play in second half Cam throws a 70 yard TD pass. Mark Barron had the ball picked off but simply overran it.
****
24-14
24-21 now. If bama blows this im going to be ****ed
Bama cannot convert after forcing a turnover, but kick a FG.
27-21 Bama, a minute left in the 3rd Q.
mcelroy may be done
suprbeast may be jumping for joy now!!!
Auburn wins 28-27
One of it not the most talented team in the country loses three games this year.
It's near midnight in Tuscaloosa.. Ingram is still trying to hold onto the football, Julio is still limpin', McElroy is still punch drunk, the refs and announcers are still pulling for Bama to win, the Tide faithful are still cryin', Nick Saban is still sick, Biggin is still depressed and pourin' another tall one, the Auburn faithful are still celebrating, and the Auburn Tigers are still UNDEFEATED...lol...WAR EAGLE!!! Biotches

Scratch that!
Congrats Brotzman
It's the coach Bama should send Saban on the first train to Dallas to coach the Cowboys. Which is exactly the rumor I heard. Brother Cam and the Newton family thank you Alabama for choking on the national stage. Maybe last year was just a fluke and this is the real Alabama that we saw this year losing to South Carolina, maybe Saban isn't the best coach in Alabama anymore. Just think of the cash that is flowing to Brother Newton's today he may get to seven figures this year. The greatest thing other than a Tennessee victory is an Alabama defeat. War Eagle
of course; the fact that it took a monumental collapse for Auburn to win means nothing I guess.
alabama gave it to you;
the score should have been 42-7 at halftime, but big mistakes cost big points.
and the no-call on the obvious pass interference on 2nd down on the drive McElroy got hurt that would have extended the drive further in AU territory.
We shut down Cam, racked up 500 yards of offense, just could not finish it off.
and funny that you mention Julio, thats pretty stupid. Ingram I can understand,but Julio had 199 yards on 10 catches and a TD. He owned Auburn.
If he does not get hurt, I believe Bama wins.
but AU won when it counted, Bama didnt. made plays late, we didnt
Kinda like Auburn gave it to Bama last year I reckon..lol.. cry me a river. Haha. It's 10 o'clock..does your QB know where he is yet? Lol
All of this with an ineligible qb.

a UT fan talking sh!t. lulz to the max.
maybe Bama will be nice and only beat you by 20 next year instead of 31.
Pretty ridiculous for a UT fan to be saying anything about Alabama.
Bama averages beating UT by three touchdowns the last four years. They might give the best team in the country a win, but they sure as hell wont let UT beat them.
yeah, cause Auburn had two fumbles inside the 10 yard line, and a TD pass dropped, etc... Bama could have been up 42-7. Last year Auburn scored two quick TDs then did little. Bama put up five hundred yards yesterday. Yeah, its not the same at all.''Quote:

Enjoy the Outback Bowl.
Ill enjoy the Capital One Bowl or the Cotton Bowl, likely Bama destinations.
UT can enjoy the Music City Bowl or the Meinike Car Care Bowl LOLZ
have fun in Shreveport! lulz
Its funny, how can something be an insult, when your team had to fight to even make a bowl and now you end up in a place like Shreveport?
Alabama's season was not exactly what I had hoped, but I expected 1-2 losses anyway. This is not the same Bama team as last year. The preseason #1 was because of winning some lil ole trophy for the national title.
Something Bama has done more often and more recent than Tennessee.
Dude I just pickin' on you, don't be so serious. It will be fine. Enjoy the holidays I am very proud of the way UT came year. I am looking forward to actually beating Bama again real soon. Enjoy the Holidays with your family this is the best time of the year. If Auburn wins BCS title it will be fifth different SEC school to win BCS.
Biggin, surely you are not insinuating that the Auburn D didn't have anything to do with those red zone turnovers..if Bama's D had made the same plays when Auburn was inside the 20 you would be crowing about how "clutch" they were..well, give the Auburn D the credit they deserve. Yesterday they were CLUTCH when they had to be...end of story.
ive said it twice, auburn made the big plays when it counted. they took advantage of mistakes and made alabama pay in the second half. auburn only had two longer TD drive, the other were long bombs that auburn made huge gains, hitting the open guys on blown assignments or having mark barron make an epic goof up and not pick that ball. and the defense didnt let bama do anything in teh second half. the run game showed up for a bit then would disappear again, with auburn making the stops late. mcelwain was terrible after halftime, he has been bad at times this year. how many deep balls did bama try after the half compared to before? all kinds of success on the AU corners but went away from it.
alabama bottled up cam in the running game, he was only able to get positive gains less than 10 times, but he made huge throws in teh pass game.
on the fairley play; cmon, how many times have you ever seen that happen? the guard just lets teh DT go right by, then stands there and looks around while the same DT is able to get that fumble?
mark ingram fumbles once a career til friday; he puts the ball on the ground three times.
but its like AU didnt get some breaks too. julio, who has killed the au cb's for 10 catches and 199 yards, gets hurt before the last two drives of the game? auburn only had two penalties called as well, thats pretty unbelievable in a game like that. not saying it was ness. terribly called, but that just doesnt happen. its either a couple missed calls (and the non-PI late on 2nd down of the next to last bama drive on the pass across the middle was one) or a team played very, very well. auburn did, and they won late.
auburn stopped the bama run for the most part, was able to hit a couple outside runs late to pick up 1st downs and those big pass plays, came up big in the 2nd half.
but its a tough loss to handle, yeah. put up **** near 500 yards of offense, julio had almost 200 yards, mcelroy was excellent, a career high, hold a top 5 offense in country to 28 points and under 400 yards, shutting down the SEC's top rusher, holding him to 39 yards, jump out to a 24 point lead in the 2nd quarter, leave 17 potential points on the board in the first half with redzone turnovers, then have your starting QB go out before the most important drive of the season.
auburn played big and great after halftime, no doubt. but its tough to feel like bama played its best, especially after halftime and came up short,
they contributed some to auburn's great performance after the half, ill say that
And saying that, recognize that half of Bama's points came courtesy of a busted coverage (Julio's big TD) and a bad call (the celebration penalty on Fairley). Face it, Auburn out toughed and beat up Bama..that's all there is to it.
out toughed lol
ok, whatever. this game will be remembered as the game Bama gave away for years and years to come.
Yes...say it with me.. OUT TOUGHED AND OUT HIT.
whatever, if you really think that, have at it.
just remember, from here to eternity, people will remember that auburn's national title run was possible because alabama let them
Yeah..Bama let 'em..lol. About those CBs, after the half they weren't giving an 8-10 yard cushion like they were in the 1st half..that made a difference..and as for Fairley, I've seen him blow up O-linemen all year and last Friday was no exception. ****, y'all Bammers whine like a lil girl when ya lose..haha
who's whining? I didnt say the refs gave it to him, or anything like that. Auburn made big plays in the second half to win.Quote:

auburn took advantage of mistakes and made the huge plays, no doubts about. they were the better team after the half.
but the game could have easily been out of reach early, if not for some crazy, once in a season type of stuff like the fumble and the Julio getting hurt before the last two drives to win the game.
auburn was the better team, they won the game.
but to say outhit and out-toughed is ridiculous, laughable really.
Most of Bamas biggest stars missed significant time due to punishment sustained in the game..and the Ingram fumble was due to a great defensive play, not Ingram's lack of ability. I'll let you have the last word on this tho since Auburn had the last word on the field lol
huh? the only persons to miss time in the AU game was Julio from the rib injury (a reoccuring thing, he had hurt it earlier but it got aggravated on the kick return, which is stupid on Bama's part by even having him back there) and the McElroy concussion or whatever.
T-Rich played hurt, Mark Barron has a torn pectoral muscle and still played, etc.. Bama played thru the injuries for the most part.
it was a good defensive play by Coleman, he didnt give up and made the play, but Ingram never fumbles was my point. It was only his second fumble of his career.
Wrong!! The number 2 WR was on tge bench with Julio as well..I don't know if he ever came back. He didn't maje anymore noise anyways.
