Wednesday Predictions

That title just sounds weird. Wednesday predictions sound really early to be predicting, but with a Thursday night game, this is the best time to do it. I am only going to post my Auburn prediction today, more will come later. So, without making you wait any longer, here goes:

Auburn @ West Virginia
This game isn't nearly as big as we all originally thought when it was scheduled. Before the season, this is how it sounded: Two top ten teams, two exciting spread offenses, in a very good evironment on national T.V. with everyone watching. Sounds great huh? Now, lets see how it sounds now: Two unranked teams, two offenses ranked, Auburn (97) West Virginia (82), in scoring, still a good environment on national T.V. and who know how many people will be watching. Personally, I am just as excited as I was in the preseason. Auburn is coming off of a bye week, and I want to see improvement. Defensive Coordinator Paul Rhoades was one of the few coaches that have been able to stop West Virginia's potent offense the last couple of years when he was at Pitt. I think he has faster players on the defense to counter that speed on West Virginia's offense. Kodi Burns will play with a lot more confidence this week as the starter. I think Auburn comes out ready to go. This is going to be a great game, but in my opinion, Auburn will come away on top. My prediction: Auburn-24 West Virginia-16

That's all I have for today, I will be back later with the rest of my predictions for this week. WAR EAGLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, that's it. Predict we'll lose and then we might win.

I've decided that when I watch, they do bad. Maybe I should stop watching.
