I'm gonna go with Auburn, I think they're a little more battle tested than Oregon is at this point.

Both teams have potent offenses, but it seems like Oregon has sputtered a bit in it's past few games while Auburn seems to be turning it up even more.

Definitely going to be an offensive shoot-out with two incredibly powerful score-at-will teams, but gotta go with recent SEC history and Auburn beating tougher teams through the stretch.

The SEC will stay undeafeated in BCS National Championship games...

Auburn's front 4 is way too physical for Oregon. The ducks have not faced anyone like that yet. The other factor is the stable of the SEC (Speed and athletic players all over the field). The Tigers can match up individually with the ducks which will allow them to put even more pressure on Thomas. James will get a couple touchdowns but ultimately he will be too small to endure the punishment. The Auburn defense will be the difference in the game.

Defensively, Oregon has no chance. They have not faced anyone like Cam. Andrew Luck is not in the same category. The skilled guys after Cam like McCalleb, Dwyer, Adams, and Burns will simply be too much. Cam is a much better passer than he is given credit for. He actually can beat you more passing than running.

This game will be close in the first half but the physicality of Auburn will wear the Ducks down... and Auburn will pull away and the final score will not be close.

52 - 34 Final Score... Auburn wins

Everyone thought Oregon could hang with Ohio State last year and OSU destroyed them in every phase of the game.

Auburn has too many weapons and speed.

Auburn 45
Oregon 23

You mean like the speed and athletic play that worked so well for Tennessee against Oregon?

You are correct. Luck is not in the same category as Cam-puter. He is much better.

Oregon in a blow-out.

Book it.

Everyone thought Auburn was going to wipe out Northwestern last year. They barely squeaked by in overtime.

Oregon in a cake walk.

Book it.

Of course, Auburn increased their salary cap this year. That could be the difference.

I don't know if their schedule was better. But I do know the payroll at Auburn is much higher.

I wonder how long till $cam Newton has to give back his Heisman?

I'd be ashamed if I were an Auburn player. Knowing I'm taking money. I hope TCU and the Mountain West sues them for monetary damages.

The BEST game out of all the bowls, as it should be. My vote is for Auburn. However, this game could go either way. They are the two best teams in the country.
