Mike Dyer Suspended for Bowl Game

Why Mike...Why?

Multiple media outlets are claiming that All-SEC RB Michael Dyer will not be participating in the Chick-fil-A Bowl game on December 31.  Nothing has been reported as to the reasons why Dyer wont be eligible.

Rumors have it everywhere from grades to failed drug tests.  In the end does it really matter why he won’t be playing. What matters is that one of the few stars on this team won’t be eligible to play.

Which leads me to ask what is going on with this team?   Where is the leadership?

Has our quest for the National Championship clouded our judgment in taking people of character? Auburn Men? I’m not saying that Dyer isn’t an Auburn man, I am simply stating with all that has happened over the past year another suspension leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Chik-fil-A Bowl – Featuring Auburn vs Virginia

That’s right bowls games are set and this year unfortunately won’t produce a National Championship trophy, heck it doesn’t even produce a New Years Day game, or in this case a day after New Years day game (since January 1 falls on a Sunday and everyone knows that belongs to the NFL).  So Auburn will get to go to Atlanta but it will be to play Virginia in the Chik-fil-A Bowl.

So who are the Virgina Cavaliers?

They are an 8-4 team with a 5-3 ACC record.  Their resume includes wins over, Georgia Tech, Miami, Maryland and Florida State.  Their biggest losses coming at the hands of Virgina Tech and Southern Miss.

The game will mark Virginia’s fourth appearance in the Chick-fil-A Bowl (formerly the Peach Bowl). The Cavaliers played their first-ever bowl game in Atlanta on. Dec. 31 in 1984, defeating Purdue 27-24 to claim the Peach Bowl crown. Virginia defeated Georgia 34-27 in the 1995 Peach Bowl and lost to the Bulldogs 35-33 in the 1998 Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl.

Thoughts Week 11 – Aww f@#$ It!

Lee Corso cursing on live TV somehow exemplify's Auburn's Season this year.

Lee Corso set the tone.

Auburn…

- Auburn hasn’t played this season.  I didn’t go to any games, so I can’t be sure that what I’ve seen on TV wasn’t some fancy PIXAR presentation.

- I saw Auburn play four games last year.  I know Cam Newton exists.  Whether or not he’s a cyborg is a different topic.

- Because Auburn isn’t playing this season, the Iron Bowl must not be happening next week.

College Football…

- Robert Griffin III is the best player in college football.  Baylor?  BAYLOR?  I mean, come on.  We talkin’ bout Baylor.  Baylor.

- Trent Richardson is going to win the Heisman.

- Alabama is going to have the easiest path to the BCSCG.

- LSU may or may not beat Arkansas and Georgia.
