Who else is licking their chops for when Bama beats Auburn to make a POY?

Saban will most likely set his starters after the 1st qt, in the Georgia State game...Alabama will be healthy for the Iron Bowl.

In an e-mail to ESPN.com, an NCAA spokeswoman said: "The solicitation of cash or benefits by a prospective student-athlete or another individual on his or her behalf is not allowed under NCAA rules."

That is straight from the horse's mouth.  Denying it changes nothing.

Jimmy,

I hope they let him play because after, Alabama beats Auburn and if the NCAA pull's Newton from playing Auburn fans...etc.

Will Say:

If Cam Newton played Alabama would have lost.

Jimmy i really like reading your posts they are always interesting, but you have been cold on some here lately, i believe you will be added to that pile by going against Alabama in the Iron Bowl.

I have noticed some people or thinking this will be a high scoreing game, and i could see why with both defense's as of lately.

But you and i know along with others this could turn out to be a low scoreing game. Keeping Auburn out of 3rd and short would good for Alabama with Cam Newton's size.

Its that sutter step he has that will catch up to him against the Tide defense, Alabama is the pits for sacking QB because of their size, but they fill the gaps because of it.

Alabama wins and knocks Auburn out of the National Championship game.

Roll-Tide

I am at least 4-1 on Auburn game this year. Including last week pick against Georgia.

AT LEAST 4-1, odd way to decsribe your record betting this team..

as an auburn fan, ill admit this thread is filled with too many homers, on both sides, thinking their team will win bc of A and B reasons...lets just see it play out...we arent going to be convincing each other any time soon

There were 2 warnings.  One was in July, and the other was last Thursday or Friday following the Cecil Newton interview.  There are many links to this, but all of them flow from one source as far as I can tell.  That source is Charles Robinson from Yahoo Sports.  He is the guy who broke the Reggie Bush story.  The guy knows what he's talking about.

His exact quote from Friday Nov. 12th was the "NCAA has made Auburn aware of potential eligibility issue. Now Auburn decides whether to risk playing him. Their risk."

After Auburn played Newton the next day, Robinson added, "Auburn was well aware of the NCAA's stance going into this game."

If you Google the first quote you'll find many articles.  Nevertheless, here is a direct link to Robinson's quotes.

I have yet to run into an Alabama fan who doesn't want to see Newton play.  I think the last thing they want to hear is the Colt McCoy excuse all over again, and I agree.  If Alabama is not good enough to beat Auburn with Newton, then so be it.  I'd rather it be that way then to listen to the Colt McCoy excuse for ten years.

I think the Cam Newton issue is probably a moot one at this point.  It's pretty obvious that unless the NCAA sees fit to take some affirmative action between now and then, Auburn will play him.

I haven't posted plays the last two weeks because I've been extremely busy.  Two weeks ago I had my second best week of the year, but last week I went 5 & 5.  Overall it has been a very good season.

Right now I don't plan to bet the Iron Bowl.  My feeling about the game, however, is that I don't think Alabama can produce enough offense to score with Auburn.  Auburn's weakness on defense is defending the deep passing game, and Bama does not have a deep passing game with McElroy behind center.  I think Bama's defense will have to play out of this world to win.

Now I'm not saying that Bama can't win this game, because they most definitely can.  On the flip side, Auburn has not really had to play a tough road game all season, so this will definitely be a big test for them.

The bottom line for me is will there be any value in the line?  If Bama comes out favored like they probably will, I certainly don't see any great value on that side of the bet.  Betting the ML on the underdog may be the bet with the most value.

Im shocked at how many people are still not giving AU credit... Wow what fools.... The beat GA by 20 and everyone on here thought GA was goin to destroy them.. What a joke... I will be laying heavy funds on AU ML.... Good luck with ur play.. This is AU year

I dont understand Alabama fans wanting to see Auburn lose, there are plenty none SEC fans that dont like us, for some reason they seem to think that winning the last past couple of NC titles means that the SEC is overrated??  I cheer for Alabama when they are not playing Auburn, the state will have back to back NC titles with two different teams if Auburn wins, Has any other state done that???

WAR EAGLE!!

invicta- would michigan fans cheer for ohio state in their game if OSU had a shot for the title? Even better- I can guarantee that Oregon St fans hope the Beavers can upset the Ducks in the Civil War. They won't care if the Ducks can possibly bring the MNC to the state or not.
