Upon further review, the 2006 season was a mix of highs and lows. Auburn speaking at least. Two early losses to bowl teams that should have never happened, a last second Les Miles Miracle for LSU and a black out beating by Georgia were the 4 losses. The 9 wins put the Tigers at 20 wins in the last two years and 50 over the last 5. Averaging 10 wins a year ain't bad at all. Tied for the most wins in the SEC with LSU over that span. Bad thing is that Tubs ain't winning in Atlanta near as much as he needs to be. He needs to get there and that entails beating LSU at home more often. Tubs, get to Atlanta and you will win.
Upon further review, the Peach Bowl was an astounding success for the Auburn Tigers. Who else can install an offense in 9 practices and then rack up season highs in yardage and number of plays? I am looking forward to the Spread Eagle offense in the fall. Mario Fannin will be an all star. Will Auburn have an All SEC reciever? Fat chance but a better one without Brandon Cox.
Do it, Tony Franklin.....thank your defense because they can be simply amazing and they were just that on NYE.
Thank heavens that Brandon Cox has moved on. He never won games, he just didn't lose them.
I want a QB who will pull miracles out of the fire for Auburn and then take 3 nubile coeds to bed to celebrate over a bottle of Jack Daniels and mescaline.
2008...Auburn returns 18 starters...looking tough...Wilbur says preseason top 10...barely.
Upon further review, all my ex's live in Texas. Why in the world has my man crush left me for Bevo, an effing cow?!?!?! Breaks my heart to see Will Muschamp leave under the circumstances he did. "If you want to be a winner, come be an Auburn Tiger!" WTF happened after that??? Is Jay Jacobs that bumbling? Was this simply over tickets or a contract signed last year??? Is he really in a better place??? Tubs should have blocked him from going. Is this serious?? Did it really happen???
Upon further review, Michael Adams is an asshole. The day after the LSU won the national title, the president of Georgia who oversaw the Harrick academic fraud scandel suddenly wants a playoff. Screw you, they didn't deserve to be there in the first place. Yeah, the BCS sucks, I agree, however your beloved black Bulldogs didn't get it done on the field. They got beat by a .500 team at home and got blown out of the stadium by Tennessee (2 garbage TDs don't matter at the end of the game), the team that did what it took to get to Atlanta. Georgia has tons of talent however they relied on emotional gimmicks to get the job done. Send the whole damn team on the field against Florida and create a chaotic, dangerous situation and wear black uniforms against Auburn. The black unis didn't beat Auburn, Brandon Cox and Matt Stafford did. Typical of the petty, Georgia bullsh#t we will have to put up with until next football season. Get over it, you didn't belong in the title game because you can't beat Spurrier or Fat Phil.
Georgia just couldn't back in this year.
Everyone says they lost the same number of games......FYI......LSU won more than Georgia and USC....on top of that the coaches think USC is better.
Who effen loses to Kentucky and Vandy (at home) anyways?? Mark Richt, that is who and Vandy is coming back next year to Athens...........Go Dores!!!
LSU won the whole damn thing.......good for them. Hat tip to Kirk Herbstreit for taking it like a man and ensuring that Les Miles didn't take the Michigan job. LSU outcoached ohio state in the BCSCG anyways. The Big 11 is somwhere between the MAC and the Southern Conference in regards to quality. Who would subscibe to the Big 10 network??? Ugggggggghaaaaahah, something just came up. Slow football teams, pasty white yankee girls..........I be stayin' down here.
Bama recruiting victories.......great for them, helluva consolation prize. Makes Bammers feel warm and fuzzy about the future. To bad that Auburn has enough depth to outlast a class that has been promised the world, instant playing time and one night with Mrs. Saban to come to the Capstone. Auburn has the 15th rated class and 8 less recruits.........go figure........the rankings are based on point total and Bama is beating Auburn by .20 average stars. Seriously, wtf?? Auburn's coaches coach and Bama's recruit...couldn't you tell?? Auburn will beat the hell out of Bama next year and the next and then Bama will be competitive again in the rivalry.......maybe.
Happy New Year!

OSU's All-America linebacker James Laurinaitis — who had a BCS-record 18 tackles and a costly face-mask penalty — echoed Grant: "You've got to be able to control your emotions in a big game like this. We didn't do that at all. We did a lot of things we shouldn't have."
Add it all together — five personal fouls, three costly turnovers, a blocked field goal, blown assignments by the nation's top defense and an LSU team that was better — and you have defeat.
"You hate to go out like this when things just went from bad to worse," Grant said as he headed across the field toward the team bus. "This was my last (OSU) game; you hate to walk out like this."
He didn't.
A few steps further— still pouring out his heart while looking straight ahead — he stepped in a pile of horse manure left by the mounted police unit that had patrolled the field.
It was the fitting end to a crappy Buckeyes' night.
