early line Auburn by 13.5

Seems about right to me, what do you think?

agreed

I would be happy to only lose by 13.5 to Auburn.  I think we'll get rolled though, hope I'm wrong.

It's a nice moneyline play for K-State, but I'll wait to see if I can find +400.    I do like the over as well (44/45).

That'll be a tough game...Auburn's a good team, as we discovered next year. If you can control the ground game against them, and run the ball effectively and stop their ability to do so, you have a good chance to win. I didn't think much of their passing game.

Doesn't that apply to about every football game ever played?

You just found out last year that Auburn is a "good" team?  Where you been?

Auburn has one of the best records in the NCAA in the last 5 years, welcome to reality. I suppose Husker fans have their heads to far up their....to know what goes on outside of Lincoln, NE.

13.5 seems right. I just hope we can score more than 13.5.

Seems a little high.  I would have guessed 9.5.

Our offense is gonna be pretty bad.  I'm hoping Prince plays this game like we did the OSU game last year.  A very heavy dose of LP with a bit of JJ and mix in a deep pass from Freeman every once in a while to keep the safeties and linebackers from completely focusing on the run.  Put the ball in our playmakers hands(Leon   and JJ  )and let them do the rest.  Maybe mix in a few plays for our speedy(Woods, Pierce?) players like a reverse hand off.  (Remember the Yamon play at Colorado last year?  Freeman is a great blocker  )

As for stopping their offense..Our secondary is the best it's been since 02 IMO.  Let the corners do their job and use everyone else to stop Auburn from running.  I don't think our D-line is going to be able to stop them whatsoever, so we'll need a very heavy dose of assistance from LBs/safeties to force them to go against our secondary or punt.

I rest my case.
