AUFriction 1,179 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Everything I’m seeing suggests we are likely facing a big 10 team in the citrus bowl.If UGA and LSU both somehow make it in the playoff, we might sneak into a slightly higher bowl. The folks saying we’re going elsewhere all seem to assume the citrus bowl is going to take the turds over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightTiger 205 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 seems like folks are also split over Wisconsins bowl fate if they stay competitive against Ohio State they are possibly in NY6. but if they get blown out looks like they are headed to Citrus.

AURex 1,984 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Yep, the good news is, I see Auburn in the Citrus on NY Day. The bad news is, Wisconsin. With Brown and Davidson sitting out, and Wisconsin's running game, ugh! I would much rather have Michigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll play in the bowl game. It's their last time to play with many they consider brothers. I agree with Mikey, their character won't let them sit.

Their careers also indicate that if they do have to make a tough decision based on their future, that you should refrain from calling them "that type of person" unless "that type of person" means "awesome teammates and leaders who gave more to the program than most players ever could or would".

To risk injury and the money that comes with those draft positions for a glorified exhibition game would be really dumb. Those two guys have given AU everything for four years. If I was the coach, I'd flat tell them it's in their best interest not to play and thank them for everything they've done for this program.

I guess it's similar to the parent watching their kids leave the house for good.

Hard to argue with this although selfishly I’d love to see them suit up one more time for AU. After what happened to that ND linebacker in the recent past I certainly couldn’t fault them if they decided to sit it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they've dipped back down again with 2 L's this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those guys proved their loyalty to AU when they came back this year, they've given it all and have nothing left to prove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autan 737 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Maybe both teams should have a gentleman's agreement to hold out their projected draftees in the non playoff bowls? However some players like Slayton might need a good bowl performance to improve their stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
