Who?
Gonna start the auburn week thread a day early, that gives us all a few more hours of the hate to simmer. Let's start with a highlights replay of one of my favorite Iron Bowls ever, and set the tone for the week...

You know what that game makes me think of every time...
Bama's dynasty started the day Tiger's ended.

You're not making sense. you're repeating yourself over and over and not offering any logical explanation behind it.
Some speculation in there for sure. I just know the games in general have been close in the cow pasture even when the Barn was outmatched. Below is what I could find for the line versus how close the game was. 2021 and 2013 should have been blowouts but were not. With that said I understand I was talking about officiating on the planes. I tried to look up some of those stats but could not find anything that would be easy to consume. A lot of folks talking about the Barn vodoo but that is just a feeling based on historical struggles and the weird crap like the play that kept Bama from three peating.

When Auburn comes into this game unranked, versus a ranked Bama team, they've won ONE game. One; 2002.
"Throw the records out the window; it's a rivalry series." It doesn't work with this game. The records reflect such.
Will something weird happen Saturday? Very likely. But an AU win? Very unlikely.
The Gus bus was always so annoying to me because luck played a big part of their offense. But one thing that has usually been true is that the barn plays stout defense. Millroe has been playing much better lately and he had a good road game against the cats, but this crowd, this noise, and this voodoo is on another level. And I especially hope the O line is ready for this noise. We don't need another 10 false start penalties in this game. I don't really believe that Bama will lose. I just want the Tide to play well and keep the momentum going into the SEC title game. And please let there be no major injuries.

I don't think Saban's team has always played well on the road consistently during the season.
Well, I made the mistake of trying to steal a win on the sportsbook last week by picking auburn to win against NM St. Lost big, $700,000. I know I deserved it. 
The Tide will roll on Saturday.

People talking about crowd noise being a factor, while auburn fans are selling their tickets like crazy right now. It'll still be loud, but no louder than when they play at A&M. This auburn team is awful.

Overall, last weekend, I lost when you look at bets versus payout.Well, I made the mistake of trying to steal a win on the sportsbook last week by picking auburn to win against NM St. Lost big, $700,000. I know I deserved it.
Payouts? I won overall.
At this point it's all about catching up to @BamaJay73 ... I'm getting there.

Speaking of bets, I think there was an error with the payout of Oregon State/Washington. I took Oregon State at -2 and got my money back on a push when they lost by 2. Probably get some hate from folks on that, but want to be honest too.
