LSU-Auburn

Did I mention I really like Auburn's Coaching Staff.

Without going into my defense of the Chizik hire when the buffon Barkly was hollering racism when he was hired. I wanted to consider his career highlights.
Prior to going to Iowa State and trying to improve the talent at Iowa State.
He coached at Auburn 2004 Defensive Coordinator and Texas 2005 Same position.
Did I mention that those teams were undefeated? 26-0.

Gus Malzahn- When he went to Arkansas he designed the offense that sent them rising in the polls. We all know that Houston Nutt demoted him similar to what has happened at Ole Miss since his first year. The results? Both Ark and Ole Miss are getting worse. Anyway, Malzahn appears to be the real deal. When he left Arkansas and went to Tulsa they led the nation in offense at 570 yards per game.
Last year, his first at Auburn they averaged 33pts per game or 17th in the nation.
The previous year they were 110th in offense, a likeness to LSU last year.

This year 38 yards per game and nearly 500 yds per game.

Now we have Auburn with less talent than LSU or Alabama possibly being the team that will end up in the NC game. For one the few times in my life, I will pull for Auburn over Bama.

What they have done with the Auburn Offense is just fun to watch.

I will address my thoughts on LSU defense later, I have never been a strong believer of this LSU defense in the 2nd half.

Every knows that Miles and Crowton need to go.

Wow would Auburn and Oregon be an offensive show or what? People have been mentioning that Newton ran away from Peterson, but I didn't see it. Is that true?
