Amazing to think we played 3,4,5,8,12 and 25.

Kinda disappointed AU doesn't jump OSU right now. Any chance AU jumps them with a win vs Mizzou? Of course OSU would be getting a top 10 win too.

If OSU struggles with Sparty while Auburn dominates Mizzou, then I could see AU jumping OSU. But if both games are similar, I don't see AU sneaking past.

I think OSU will have to lose. If they beat Mich St can't see Auburn jumping them. They're going to have their hands full with Sparty. Quietly a very good team.

Best defense in college football. I watched them play a few times and they swarm the ball like crazy.

Yeah they're good. Flying under the radar a bit.

I think if Auburn wins the SEC championship then they jump Ohio State. OSU shouldn't even be ranked in the top 5 due to their weak schedule.

I don't disagree about OSU's schedule, but the poll voters aren't going to jump AU over OSU unless there is a major difference in the way they two conference title games play out.
