Auburn -3

[AUalum_04]

I'm not sure who I'd bet on in this one....guess it depends on which team shows up for both schools....If AU gives its best effort I think I would have to take the Tigers....

 

Good luck Husker fans....War Damn Eagle!

Welcome AU! Stick around, there will be plenty of time in between. Y'all have a good team, and I think the whole "Auburn vs Nebraska" in itself just sounds like a good football game. I wish you guys the best! Here's to the best bowl game out there!

[HuskerfaninOkieland]

I'm a tad surprised Auburn is favored by only 3. I would have expected at least 7 or 10. Either way, it should be a good game

[FriscoTXHusker]

Welcome. Hopefully both teams will show up and we'll have a great game, AND THE HUSKERS WILL WIN! GBR.

Auburn is an easy favorite in this one, just like Oklahoma was. The lines are about the same at this point.

Welcome to the board. I was actually expecting the line to be much worse, but as long as we don't lay an egg I will be happy. Good luck to your team. GBR

So will you be happy if we only score 3???

 

I just hope its a close, fun, exciting game......

[husker rob]

do we want to see a defensive battle 10-7 score or a shootout 45-42 score?

[BIGREDIOWAN]

I say it's going to come down to defenses in this one and what those units actually do to stop the other's offense. Auburn is a good running team I believe so we have a slight edge there............however a three year old could throw for 300 yards on our secondary so don't be surprised if they go to the passing game.

[Eric the Red]

Has this moved?

[strigori]

We would be the better equipt team to get into a shootout. I dont know that a close one would be our best bet.

[Hawkeyehusker]

I can't see the tigers as favorites. We match up very well in this game. We win this game. Might even blow them out.

[strigori]

They are ranked higher than us, and I have seen some early predictions from so called experts that see AU with a multi touchdown win. Remember we are just the Big 12 North. AU is the SEC. No question who the 'experts' will pick.

Hey, tell me if I go to far, but this statement seems a little off to me. I mean, there's hoping for your team, and I even don't mind people saying that they'll win, but a blow out? I mean, losses to USC and Oklahoma aren't that bad, but OK State says something (the Texas game shouldn't have even been a loss so I don't count that). But Auburn's loss to UGA isn't very good either. But even losses aside, I don't know if Nebraskas really beaten any great teams this year. Good ones, yes, aTm, and TT, but I don't know if those teams quite compare to Florida and LSU this year.

 

I'm not trying to say that Auburn is gonna blow out Nebraska, I'm just saying that if Nebraska does win, it'll most likely be within 14. Hell, I don't think Auburn would blow out Nebraska, although I'd give them 17 since the spread is 3 in Auburn's favor.

 

Sorry if I seem defensive, but all week before the LSU game we had LSU fans making predictions of the likes of 45-3 and 30-0 in favor of LSU. And then they can't handle the loss. I just want to be able to have resonable discussions on this game.

 

As for being in the SEC, yeah, its starting to look like that finally helps a team out, since the SEC is getting a good rep, but c'mon, the big XII northin isn't THAT underrated.

[gamecocks]

I agree AU. I don't know if either team is built to blow out the other team. If we were to get up by two touchdowns. I don't see our secondary shutting down your offense. Reversly, I can see our offense moving the ball if we are down two touchdowns to the Tigers. If we don't turn the ball over, we could still be pretty impressive.
