Does anyone know anything about how the two are doing and when either may be back? Thanks,

Im not sure about Ainge. I talked to Brent, he might be back for the SECCG...but the bowl game definately.

According to the Tennessean, Ainge is still slated to be out 4-6 weeks, but all of the tests have shown no major damage.

Wouldn't that be interesting?? If Schaeffer could even manage to split time with Clausen, it would be a look that Auburn didn't really see the first time around.

Since Auburn will have 2 weeks to prepare for the SECCG... maybe Fulmer is waiting, no matter what the doctors say, until the last few days before the game to announce anything. If Auburn prepares for Clausen and either Shaeffer or Ainge or both end up playing... that could be an advantage for the Vols? Either way, I think the Vols will take a more conservative approach to this game than the first meeting. The Vols defense is much better.... eliminate the turnovers and mistakes on offense.... play for field position..... and keep it close until the 4th quarter and give the Vols the chance to win. The plus to that is if the Vols defense can create a turnover or make Auburn make some mistakes... the Vols can jump out .... kinda like they did against Georgia. Auburn (Tuberville) gets out-of-whack when they are behind in a game. However, they've only been in 1 close game (LSU) and they only scored 10 points.

I think if Schaeffer takes some of the snaps, we will be alright in the SECCG. Get worried at times, but then i realize that we always come through with our backs to the walls. And that wall is about as big as it gets on December 4th. :banghead:

I agree with allvol, IF Schaeffer is ready to play, I think that Fulmer will keep it under tabs. That would be huge difference if they planned for Clausen and we gave them Schaeffer. No offense to Rick, but I hope that Brent is healing really fast.
