Five Things Revisited: Auburn Edition.
Dawg Sports — ... If we beat Georgia Tech, then play in and win the Capitol One Bowl, we have an excellent chance to finish in the top 5.

We haven't lost to Syracuse. Or gone 3-9 under our supergenius spread-erific new coach. Sanford Stadium hasn't been hijacked ...
