Re: 9 hours
What's your feeling, Diver? Do the Ags have any chance in this one?
Whoops, I said Doofus but meant Diver.

Re: 9 hours
If I didn't think we had a chance I'd probably be asleep by now.
Decent success running the ball + no turnovers = our offense stays on the field = our defense stays fresh for the entire game
If the offense can't stay on the field and the defense gets gassed in the heat and humidity then Auburn will run away from us late.
Was watching Aggie Fanatics earlier tonight and they made a good point or asked an interesting question rather. Which team will be more nervous in that environment? USU in hostile territory or all the young freshmen for Auburn playing for the first time in front of thier fans with the pressure of coming off a 14-0 season. Lots of pressure on Auburn's guys. I don't think we'll be intimidated by the crowd.... except maybe at QB? gulp

Re: 9 hours
A lot of people are worried about the speed. I think USU will match up fine with the speed, it's the size and strength on the lines I'm worried about. This is always where the Ags get beat. Hopefully they have enough depth in the trenches to keep fresh legs through the 4th quarter.

Re: 9 hours
That's a dang good question, I hadn't thought of it like that. For most of Auburn it's their first start... and at home coming off the National Championship win. That does add quite the nerves and pressure.SuperiorBlueDiver wrote:Which team will be more nervous in that environment?

Re: 9 hours
Is the countdown broken for everyone else too? For some reason mine stopped at 3:00 this morning and I can't figure out why...

Re: 9 hours
Mine says zero right now.
This post is likely straight up poor sarcasm and cannot be taken seriously.
