BCSucks

Auburn's 23-17 win this weekend was just that, a WIN. Ill take 3 more just like it. While many have viewed the game as lackluster or unimpressive, I was pretty pleased. The score is not indicative of how well Auburn played. As i watched the game, I wrote down some things I felt worth mentioning:

The poor excuse for commentators known as the 3 headed Dave, did not disappoint. The were just as bad, if not worse than ever. At one point Dave Rowe called CT "courtney cox" (which also happens to be a shirt). He also described the running of Ole Miss RB BenJarvus Green Ellis as "he is a north south runner, that means he runs straight ahead". I had no clue thats what north-south meant. WOW.

Auburn's defense, aside from T
ray Blackmon, just cannot tackle. Everyone is just running around slamming into the ball carrier, and they just bounce off of them.

I think the "O" in Coach O should stand for ogre, because that's exactly what he looks and sounds like. His voice is deeper than Michael Clarke Duncan's (John Coffey in
The Green Mile).

Tristan Davis need to have the ball in his hands more often. Period.

John Vaughn = money.

Auburn doubled Ole miss in every statistical category. The only reasons the score looke
d as bad as it did were penalties, and the 2 turnovers, which Ole Miss turned into points thanks to the penalties. We ran 75 plays vs 45 from Ole Miss. TOP was AU 37:00 to their 23:00. That's pretty good.

Cox, Irons, and CT all had great days. The offense played extremely well and the defense played OK.


Moving along to the worst championship system ever created, Auburn drops to #6, even after USC lost to OSU. Florida, which Auburn beat without an offensive touchdown and most recently beat an impressive (not) Georgia team, jumped ahead. I guess moving everyone up as they were would make way too much sense, so they say to themselves, hey we should flip flop Auburn and Florida, even though Auburn beat them and has a better record (8-1 vs. 7-1). Maybe they wanted to keep us guessing. Congrats, mission accomplished. This whole system just pisses me off. The whole concept of letting other people and computers decide who is the #1 is just ridiculous. The players should decide it on the field, in a playoff; which happens to be the system that EVERY other NCAA sport uses. Also, so do the NFL, NHL, MLB etc. Style points are also gay. I don't think I need to say anything more about it. Everyone knows it. They are about as cool as Chad Johnson's hair.

I guess that's all for now. War Eagle!
