Well, we survived the night in New Orleans (barely). We'll start making the trek up to Baton Rouge in not too long. In the meantime, here's how my game advance story starts:

AUBURN, Ala. — Fans wanting to know how Auburn’s game at LSU will turn out tonight probably don’t have to tune in immediately when it starts at 7:30 p.m.

Click over when there’s about one minute left in the game, and you probably will see the deciding play.

If history is any indicator, tonight’s game between visiting Auburn (5-2, 2-2 SEC) and No. 9 LSU (5-1, 3-1 SEC) will go down to the final seconds. Of 21 meetings since 1988, 12 have been decided by a touchdown or less, including the past five.

“My experience right now is if you win the last play, you win the game,” Auburn cornerback Walt McFadden said. “That’s my whole thing. If we can just go out there and play that last play, we’ll win.”

Read the whole thing here. And follow the blog on Twitter. I'll be blogging from the stadium right up until the start of the game.
