I’m watching Ark state vs Louisiana right now and it’s a one point game and they just showed the crowd, maybe 6,000 people in the stands. Maybe. I too get frustrated at times at our attendance but we are light years ahead of many schools.
We are light years ahead of most G5 - it is a dying group that no one cares about which we should avoid at all costs and focus on getting to P5 and take all steps now that gets us there the quickest before the club doors are locked after next major change. I would be all for buying out 2021 on - G5 / FCS already on our schedules and reworking to all P5 games possible - make the leap - rip the bandaid - hire and recruit accordingly.
I agree :idea:

What is most unexpected is we could play two top 25 teams this season. Virginia will probably crack the rankings in a big way today. Auburn's remaining games are against TA&M, Georgia, Liberty, Alabama.

TA&M will probably hang on to #25 in today's poll, UGA and Alabama are both top 10. If Auburn can win or keep competitive, they could be ranked behind the Wahoos.

I'd be shocked if Auburn found a way to make it back into the top 25 before playing LU but it certainly isnt impossible with how unpredictable the SEC matchups can be at time.

The more surprising thing is that UVA will end up being a tougher game than Auburn. Who would have predicted that?

I'm not expecting a huge surge up the rankings for Auburn, but I could see them at 24 or 25 if they beat TA&M and play UGA close.

If those two play 10 times Auburn is going to win 8.
And thus the system is broken

No way is UVA tougher game than Auburn. The ACC is bad this season other than Clemson. Thus the boo hoos have won some games that they shouldn't have won in most years. Auburn's 3rd string is better than UVA. I expect a win when we go to Charlottesville. We catch Auburn at right time, just before Alabama and after they play Georgia I think. Truth be known Army might be best team we play this season.

We have a real chance of getting our mouth smacked in Charlottesville. Auburn is better, but the Wahoos are not a pushover this season. Your sleeping hard on them.

Catching Auburn on a "walking bye" is our only hope to beat them.

The Wahoos are 23rd in the nation for this week. They should not be overlooked at all. I do hope that we can get Auburn if they are unstable because of the week before we play them. UVA game will not be an easy one ballcoach. Would it be nice to win; heck yes. Those folks (Charlottesville) beside us believe we are the roach who needs to be stepped on. Would love to show them, but will not drink too much kool aid.

TA&M held on as well. Auburn still receiving votes. As is Army.

Auburn will play three top 25 in their last 4.

Let's hope Auburn can swing getting into the top 25 to help our strength of schedule.

I think Pitt beats the boo hoos. The ranking will go to their heads. I see photos in newspapers of them taunting and acting as if they've never "been there before". (which is true)
And I can see Boo Hoos taking Liberty lightly, looking ahead to their game with VT.
