Great to see more national attention coming our way! WAR CAM EAGLE!
Are you going to make it Thursday Andy?
I will definitely be there. Should be an interesting game. ESPN Thursday-nighters on the road are always difficult.

Auburn can score up some points. And the team with the most points usually wins. State will not be able to keep up.
I expect Auburn to win Thursday, but I'm thinkin' it won't be easy. Unless some magic gets worked with the pass defense it could get downright scary.
