AU plays MSU tomorrow for another breakfast edition of college football. I know I said in my last post that I think this game could be ugly and it still could. MSU definitely has the ability to put a hurt on AU and not think twice about it. However, I think that AU plays better and comes out fired up and ready to show that last week was not how AU plays football. MSU is a good team with a good offense. Their defense is still a bit of a mystery, however, because they have only played a really bad Memphis team. Chris Relf is back at QB for the bulldogs and has the ability to make plays. He will not win many games if the offense relies on just him, but, in light of that, they return 9 offensive starters. I don't care who you are, that helps.
As for the game, I think AU plays inspired and is able to move the ball. We will pass more if warranted, but I think Gus still wants to run the ball. The offensive line will need to get tough quickly and open up some holes for Dyer and McCalebb. The defense will have to make stops especially against the run. They have to get off the field after 3rd downs and not miss tackles. I think AU gets up and then MSU makes a comeback but AU wins in the end 38-35. It will be a high-scoring affair with question marks remaining for both defenses and both offenses clicking along nicely.
Auburn needs to win this game, first off because it's at home and one of the probable few AU can win. Also, this will kick-start the SEC season into gear and will get us ready for the trip to Clemson and the brutal October. Wake up early AU fans and cheer loud! War Eagle!
