Interesting Tidbits after Alabama
Just checked, 28-27 still happened. Enjoy.
- All human polls, besides the old guys‘ and a guy’s at CFN, think Auburn is the 2nd best team in the nation: Coaches’, Harris, AP.
- The computers disagree, and that’s all that matters.
- Regardless of the disrespect in the human polls, and yes it is a complete shame that anyone would not put Auburn, the best team in the best conference, at #1, everyone now agrees that the Tigers will go to Glendale: CFN, ESPN, Chris Low.
- ESPN’s Power Rankings, made up of the votes of every person, including Chris Low, that has thrown Auburn and Cam Newton under the bus surprisingly puts Auburn at the top this week.
- Another guy at CFN analyzes the BCS rankings and says Auburn deserves to be on top, and as long as they don’t get blown out this weekend, they should stay in the top two.

- Not sure of what you learned this past weekend? Don’t worry, Chris “Twinkie” Low will tell you.
