I'm a major big-time college football fan. My first love is Auburn. But I think that I can have a crush on another team too. Right now Notre Dame is looking like a likely target. I have student tickets there this year, and if I want them, probably for the rest of my twenties, maybe beyond. (I'm a first year history Ph. D student). That said, I want to blog these two seasons.
Auburn vs. Kansas St.
K State is a team on the rise, and Auburn has been at it's most consistent in the past few years. I fully expect a ten win season from my Tigers, even with the toughest road schedule in the SEC. K State is good, but I really can't conceive of them pulling an upset in Auburn on T-dub's watch. Plus Brandon Cox is going to have a break-out season. Not on the scale of Jason Campbell's senior year, but much improved from last year.
Auburn 27 K State 10
Notre Dame vs. Georgia Tech
No one is expecting Notre Dame to do much this year. They've got a really tough schedule, and a lot of young players. If they can't beat Tech today, we're in for a long season. But I don't have a lot of confidence that this will actually happen. But I'm sure there's about 2000 fans prayer under the outstretched arms of touchdown Jesus. We don't need a miracle to win today (that would be October 20th vs USC), but I expect it's going to be close.
Notre Dame 31 Georgia Tech 30
