So let us start this out... who will win? I have my money on Florida. They are on a roll but a whole month of no football can change any team so it should be a good game.

    FSU looks like a better team across the board.

    :( Good game... you all were definitely the better team. With that said, I'm hoping Fl State can pull it off. So sick of the SEC.

    They've been unstoppable this season and I live in Tally, so I should say FSU. But I'm torn. I saw enough of the last couple Auburn games and that team is motivated, so I wouldn't be surprised if they're the ones who can take down the Noles.

    I'm not a big college football fan in general, so I'm not attached to the game, but it's been an exciting season.

    Auburn has already beat one team better than Florida State in the last two weeks, and another almost as good. FSU will not stop the Auburn run game. Period.

    Auburn by at least 10. WAR DAMN EAGLE!

    i will probably be rooting for FSU because their head coach is a native of my home state and former assistant coach here. Plus the son of their offensive line coach ia QB here... anyway, there are a number of ties.

    That said, I think the ACC is routinely overrated as a conference, and if FSU were playing ACC teams closely, I would have my doubts about them being able to hang with Auburn. Let's also consider that the SEC wasn't as strong this year as it has been in years past. Ranking conferences is an exercise in futility, but I think that most would agree that they weren't as dominant.

    As usual, I just hope for a fun game to watch. I really hate BCS games that are blowouts (unless it is my team that is winning that blowout).

    Auburn will have a significant offensive advantage for a layoff game, as their scheme doesn't have the timing issues that a passing attack does. If somebody is going to come out rusty on offense I'm putting money on FSU. That said, once on track FSU should be every bit as good. They score higher and gain more yards per play than Auburn, but their competition has been weaker as well. The ACC simply isn't the SEC.

    Florida State has the better defense, significantly so (1st vs. 38th) and that's measurable in yards per play and scoring at a level that matters despite the weaker competition. Auburn really isn't anything special defensively (below middle for the SEC), though they can play well in stretches.

    If both teams play as they are capable, I think FSU wins on paper.
  • I love, love the SEC - but I've really enjoyed watching the ACC adapt over the years to be similar in some ways to the SEC. Watching SEC / ACC games to me is a LOT like watching the east play the west in the SEC, and I'm so looking forward to the big one.

    I promised my sister I would root for FSU this year, first time ever. (I'm not taking full credit, but yea I think I did a lot to add to FSU success this year). But I had no idea I'd be expected to cheer for them against Auburn. We agreed that I wouldn't watch the game with her, and she would pretend I was still rooting for FSU :)

    Auburn 42, FSU 38, the difference being pts off of turn overs.

    I'm an SEC fan too, but I'm excited for this game. I think it's going to come down to the last second and will be a lot more exciting than the last few national championship games. Both of these teams are very good, and I think they'll compete strongly against each other.

    That being said:

    WAR EAGLE

    Yeah, the TxAM game turned out to not be much to brag about. But we already beat the *second* best team in the country a week before beating a legit top 5 team. So I think that is pretty good.
