Hopefully we come out of the gate stronger than last year's first game [shudder]. For the long-term bowl success and recruiting, it's probably better to play a chump at home and get a sure win than to get beat-down at Auburn. But there's always the chance that we play tough or win, which would go a long, long way towards putting the program back on the map. I am optimistic enough to hope that we can do this, realistic enough that a loss won't send me into too deep a depression.
I don't care about overall team record bragging rights with the rest of the Big XII schools, head-to-head with them is all that matters. I am hyped about this game and have been waiting for it all summer. Never before have I been so stoked for a season opener.
