Here it is. My buddy Mudloggerone seems to have already written off Oregon, but what is Auburn without Cam Newton? A 7-5 football team.

What does Auburn do well outside one guy? Do they play great defense? (55th in total yards at 362 a game, 54th in total points at 24.46 points per game). If you take out Cam Newton, does Auburn have a couple extra studs to lean on? (Im not aware of any).

Oregon has waves of skill guys. Oregon is 25th in the country in total defense and 12th in scoring defense. They are not just a one man team. That might make a big difference in the game.

2 - Oregon 38, 1 - Auburn 34

What was Oregon's QB thinking on that pitch???

Orgon start 3 and out and Auburn is already facing a 3rd and 17 and now punting.

Of course this will be a defensive battle......we all want to see 100 pts

 

[Miller]

Oregon's O looks to be heating up a little now

 

[chrisslabaugh]

oh yeah?

 

[Miller]

lol, I said a little Guess it was just a hot flash, lol.

3 turn over in the first 10 minutes!

 

[Miller]

Ducks strike first, take 3-0 lead.

 

[Miller]

Auburn takes the lead, 7-3

 

[Miller]

Oregon would be damn good if they would just play football!!! They get too damn fancy on this crap!

And then BOOM!!! from the 5 to the other 10 in one play!

 

[Arctic Dawgs]

Do they have those hundred square boards/pools for the BCS ??

16-11 is a wierd half time score

 

[Miller]

wow, not the score many felt we'd see....but a good game.

 

[mudloggerone]

Real

Good

Game!

 

[Sgt John]

Ill hand it to Auburn. I was certain Oregon would have enough talent across the board to beat the one man band, but they didnt.

Great game and hats off to Auburn. Now time for Cam to go to the NFL and Auburn to slip to 8 wins.

 

[storminn0rm]

That was a great game!

Not what i expected score wise. Guessing it would be in the mid to high 30's, possibly 40s for each team. Good game anyways. Congrats to Auburn. Stupid Ducks, really thought they would win it tho.
