What's Been Going On?

I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I would get on and give a quick recap. The real question is what has REALLY been going on.

For starters, A-Day has taken place. I should have posted on this earlier, but I haven't had much time. It was an exciting A-Day game where the team was really just trying to figure out who the arter would be at quaterback. Kodi Burns and Chris Todd are the final two candidates for the job. It looked as though after A-Day they would be going into fall in a head to head race. This is true, however, Kodi Burns played great in the last scrimmage. The coaches say this gives him a slight lead over Todd. Personal Opinion: I think no matter who wins the job, both of them will be getting a lot of playing time when the season comes around.

With the season just 16 weeks 4 days and about 13 hours and 6 min (from the time i wrote this, there is even less time now), early predictions are beginning to come out. Most of the ones I have seen have Auburn going around 10-2. The two losses coming against LSU and West Virginia. With Perrilloux's dismissal ( a whole subject in itself), the LSU one is questionable. The West Virginia game has pretty much been a toss up game in most of the predictions I have seen. My Opinion: If the quaterback transition goes over smoothly and the defense comes along under new defensive coordinator Paul Rhoads, Auburn will have a chance to make a serious run for something serious. That is a stretch, but if the Chick fil' a bowl was any indication, it all could happen.

Hopefully, I will begin to update daily. The season is getting here quick, and I am having withdrawals. I will come in before too long and give you my predictions. That's all for today though! WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
