The Sabres Go For It

The Flyers just got destroyed last night in Buffalo- and many Flyers were opining in the papers about whether they hit rock bottom. Gosh guys, I dunno. But it is pretty bad when the Buffalo crowd roars “we want ten” for a good part of the third period.

Some character named “gtownwave fan” made me laugh with this prediction of the Tulane-Auburn game this Saturday. An accurate and glib summation of the “adult” Tulane fan base many consternations:

Picking the score wasnt enough fun so I've decided to add a few things.

Auburn 38; Tulane 20 (14 fourth quarter points after the game is decided)

After the game, Scelfo gives postgame comments that are similar to the ones he gave after the LSU game. You basically get the impression that he knew we were beat before the game started and he let the team know this as well.

On Sunday morning the YOGWF will have a few posts talking about the 'positives' that came out of the Auburn game. The context of these posts will be something like 'We got more first downs than them in the last 6 minutes of the fourth quarter. I think this team is improving.' or 'Auburn really didn't dominate us. They only had 400 yards of total offense and we really limited their big plays.' And of course there will be a few posts that talk about how Auburn really didn't have more talent than Tulane, their players just had more confidence and believed in themselves more.
