The Catalyst to a NC...

Auburn won't be great next year, but they will be good. They will be an 8-4 type team.

They lose Kenny Irons, 4 Starting Offensive Linemen, and a few key guys on defense (Herring and Irons).

If we picked any year to play Auburn, next season would probably be it.

and we get them early in the season, we may be their toughest game at that point.

if we come in and play our A game we have a good shot.

that said we are not a good road team.

I don't think its so much that we aren't a good road team.  We are just really young.  We still arent to the point where we are getting the best talent in the state.

We need that one 5 star stud to break this program out into the big time.  We Grothe on this team and our ability to make it to a bowl every year, that five star stud might come very soon.

Windbane -- it is good to dream.  I am not trying to harp on the parade.  It's possible.

A win at Auburn would be ridiculous.  I will leave it at that.

At the very least, we are inconsistent on the road.

Is the Auburn game being televised?

Too early to tell.

...we could get stuck with a bad bowl again.

Anything outside of a BCS bowl should be considered a bad

bowl.

Outside Gator or BCS is bad.  I consider right now Gator for us just as significant or close as BCS

[bulls96go]

will notre dame always get a big east bowl or can that end with the new contract in a few years?  i personally find it stupid.  that said, notre dame might just suck enough to not make a BCS so i agree we wouldnt go to the gator bowl then.  so let's just go to the BCS, heh.  navy wont get the MCCB, though, so we could go there if we actually got selected first, which i would find surprising.  we could get stuck with a bad bowl again.

there are no bad bowls! ;D

That being said also.  Part of me is VERY surprised that Auburn didn't buy out that contract.  I can't see anything postive on Auburns behalf to have a team like South Florida coming into play them the third week of September.

Kind of shocking if you ask me.  Maybe they are honorable.

We are a good team and to imagine us recieving money at this point to play a team like Auburn is kinda of funny.

Imagine getting paid and beating them.

Adding USF to a SEC schedule is kinda of stupid.  I think they played UCF back in the day when they had Culpeper too.  UCF almost beat them if I remember right.
