Rednilla 5,390 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Well, if we do beat Clemson this season, we have a little bit of history on our side...the last time Auburn beat the defending national champs on their own field was the legendary Camback against bammer in 2010. Would LOVE to have the same outcome for both the game and the season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I am going to flip flop. After StatTigers last two threads I am going to switch the Clemson game to a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randman5000 4,227 Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 IF our defense plays as well as it did last year. Then yes. And, because we won't be running three different quarterbacks out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's as much of a given as people think. Clemson isn't some low-budget group of five program, they have a sizable athletic budget and they'll be more than ready to pony up what it takes it keep him. Regardless, the very moment they experience a 2010-like season (for them, which means 3 losses) they're going to flip out, which will really bring them back down.

Tiger 8,822 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I, too, think Dabo is the next Bama coach unless Clemson gives him a statue while he's still coaching there. Bama is his dream job, but if he's smart he'll wait to go to Bama after the guy they hire after Saban inevitably fails to keep the machine running at the current rate and is fired.

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Once again, I think Clemson will be the 2nd best team we play all year. Their defensive line may be the best in college football next year (even better than ours). And it is on their field. They have top notch asst coaches and more talent at every position than most of the other teams in the SEC. I am thankful that we have a game against a decent lower tier team to open with and hopefully we will have an OL that knows assignments by week 2. Winning on the road against the defending champs in a nationally televised game (it will probably be at night) is exactly what we need to take the next step with this program. Honestly if we win this game we can probably win any game on our schedule. The sky will be the limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knocking off the defending champs in their house on prime time TV will do more than we could imagine for the confidence and motivation of our entire program. The whole college football nation would stand up and take notice of the Auburn Tigers. Auburn could be a dangerous force for the rest of the season with a Win at Clemson.

ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 This game at Clemson is probably one of the most important ones we'll play all season, it's at their place, and winning it means we show the nation that Auburn is making a run at a championship in 2017. Our schedule is favorable to do so as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
