Say we go 8-4 and go to a good bowl like Cotton, Gator or Peach, Auburn goes 11-1 and plays in the Sugar Bowl, and Cam wins the Heisman and leaves for the NFL.All very realistic possibilities.
Which team would you rather have next year? MSU's returning team or Auburn's returning team?
Would you trade spots with Auburn this year knowing next year you could be 6-6 if Newton leaves?
I'm taking our team all day. Auburn will have Barrett Trotter at QB next year, and we will return Relf, Russell, Favre, and add Prescott. We return all skill position players except Berry, and we add Marcus Green back from injury. Auburn loses Burns and Terrell Zachery. They lose 4 starting OL, while we lose 2. Auburn loses 3 out of 4 starting in the secondary, and we lose Langston. We lose Pernell on the DL, and Auburn loses 4 players on their 2 deep on the DL. They lose 2 LBs, and we lose 2 LBs. They also lose Mario Fannin
We are returning a ton of people next year, and Auburn is losing a lot of playmakers. I think if Newton leaves, Auburn could go 6-6 next year because they will have no QB with SEC starting experience, a line with 4 new starters, and a secondary with 3 new starters. We look really good for next year compared to Auburn.
