re: Is it consensus that this is Auburns year again?

I think on paper Auburn has the best squad just ahead of bama. However, as usual, bama has the schedule that gives them the best shot to succeed. I think it comes down to the Iron Bowl again and with bama's qb having 11 games under his belt, game being at home, and the bitter taste last year has to have left in their mouths would say bama is probably the slight favorite right now.

I hope it's a situation where we are 11-0 going into the game and will get in even with a loss.
