i honestly dont think 04 Auburn would stop Newton

but at the same time i dont think 10 Auburn could stop Caddy/Ronnie and crew

it would be a shootout, and i think 10 Auburn has the upperhand due to Newton

I've gone back and forth on this one a lot. The 04 team was more complete, but I just don't see anyone stopping the 2010 offense. Here's my take:

A shootout dominated by big plays, the score is tied with 4 minutes left and AU 04 has the ball. They drive down and kick a field goal with 32 seconds left. Demond Washington returns the ball to the 41, Newton scrambles to the 27 on a broken play, then hits Phillip Lutzenkirchen for a touchdown on a playaction pass, leaving 4 seconds on the clock. Carnell Williams breaks three tackles and makes two others miss, but Craig Sanders, who missed initially, trails the play and tackles him just as he is about to make it into the clear, ending the game.

You don't say, that is a lot of detail.

Just wondering... does NCAA 11 have the AU 04 team cause then we could try to find out that way, I am at work so I can't look

That's a touch question.. I would go with AU 04 just because of how much of a monster the D was but AU 10 would keep it close

at this point 04 by no more than 3 but a NC and I say 10, Nick Fairley is a monster fellas. I think it would come down to who could control the line of scrimmage.

I voted for the 04 team due to the talent across the board on both sides.  But thinking about how xCTT would have been coaching the 04 team made me change my mind.  I think he would have tried to eat up the clock and play conservative offense.  By the time he figured out that wouldn't work it would be to late.

I don't think there's any question in my mind that '04 was a better team.  I think they may have been one of the best 2 or 3 teams this decade.

That's why I laugh whenever I hear commercials on JOX for prints from the "greatest season ever."  Seriously?  They should probably retitle it the "perfect storm."

I think the 04 team is being underestimated. That team had how many NFL players on it? 4 first round picks. We have faced a team that is half as good as that teams. I love our team now but 04 wins big. I could see Ben O, Courtney T, Ronnie, and Caddie having big days.
