I graduated from Bama the same year that Bear Bryant won his last nat'l championship. Big Bama fan, but this year Auburn will win going away. Of course, I said the same thing re: Bama the year (1972?) when Auburn blocked 2 punts in the final 2 minutes, returned both for touchdowns, and won 17-16. ANYTHING can happen in this game

However, Auburn deserves to be #1.

Did anyone catch the hit on Georgia's Reggie Brown that Auburn registered? I thought the kid was DEAD. One of the most vicious licks I have ever seen. I was happy just to see him walk off.

Outside the SEC, they just TALK about football. I live in ACC territory now, and they have no idea....... Of course they do play some basketball here.

So did we. When CBS zoomed in on him - and his chest wasn't moving... Well, scary doesn't begin to describe it. I thought it tremendously classy that the Auburn players immediately said a prayer for him. I even have to give CBS credit for reporting their action. But, this brought up a topic of discussion between my husband (NOT a huge college football fan outside the Navy/Army game) and me (a HUGE college fan): What happens if a player expires on the field? Does the game end? Do they continue? What's the protocol for such tragedies?
