Two Thumbs Up

*Insert token thumb idiom here*

Thumb War, One for the Thumb, Thumbtastic, Thumbs Up, Rule of Thumb, Thumbellina. . . you name it, we will see it in tomorrow's papers.

First of all, WAR DAMN EAGLE! Five in a row is pretty sweet. I was thinking the other day about how I hated that we had gotten so used to dominating Bama. I thought how much it will suck if we ever lose to them again, but i knew it wouldn't be for a while. I was right. For that reason, I think its a good time to go ahead and add "Jordan-Hare West Wing" as the new name of Bama's stadium, because we own it. 6-0 at an opposing teams home turf is redonkulous. Also, Tommy Tuberville Field @ Bryant Denny will suffice. As long as it shows that Aubunr has home field advantage whenever they come. The Auburn football team actually walked out onto the field 1st, which is usually when the home team walks out. How appropriate.

Random thoughts on the game:

I have no clue how they kept CT's hamstring injury on Wed a secret, but I heard/read nothing of it.

Quentin Groves. What a great game. He might as well have been wearing number 75 in Bama's eyes. 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles. Awesome. Look for him to be SEC Defensive player of the week.

Will Herring was all over the field. That was the first time Id seen him play that well at the LB spot. While he has been good, tonight he was great. What a way to break the consecutive start record.

Kenny had a great game, along with Brad Lester. Brad is special. He runs with some much passion.

Prechae-te It. Thank you Mr. Rodriguez for remembering how to catch.

Cox's number werent anything near decent. They arent as indicative as to how well he played. He managed the game well, eliminated last week's mistakes, and had several clutch throws. Ill take clutch vs. Sarah Jessica Parker Wilson's 2 fumbles and better numbers. However, Wilson is a good QB. Watch out for him next year.

Tristan Davis played well in Eric Brock's stead. Once again, he is electric on KO returns and he made some big hits.

Tray Blackmon also had some big hits. He definitely has a nose for the ball.

Apparently some Bama students were as classless as Terrence Jones. They threw water bottles on the field at our players after the game, and Jones hit Lester/Cox while in their Victory formation. I guess Id wanna hit them too if i never win.

On another note, Kodi Burn's commitment to Auburn is huge. This kid excites me. Ive seen his highlight videos and i watched a video fo him talking about his commitment. He seems very intelligent and very committed to Auburn. This kid will be our next starter in 2008. He will reshirt next year, and will challenge Caudle for the job . I just dont think Caudle or Ensminger have what it takes. Burns is a combination of Jason Campbell and Dameyeune Craig. I expect big things from him. He has a strong arm, and he can run like Vick. Auburn already has 19 in its' recruiting class and its not even recruiting season yet. For anyone interested here is a highlight real and here is his interview
