gambling guy unironically complaining about the outsized influence of a third party on a sport is hilarious
I don’t think they meant this as a dig rather than as praise for Cam, but these guys might be forgetting that Auburn had 223 rushing yards on that day by players not named Cam Newton. Offensive line and scheme also mattered.
So are we going back to conference titles being awarded by record? You can have multiple champs from the same conference? Stinks conference championship games are going away and glad I got to experience one live, but we’re at least keeping the idea of a league title, right?

Colorado’s wackiest conservative media personality embraced by some of the party’s candidates is advocating for the Texas GOP to do the same things that have rendered the Colorado GOP societally and politically irrelevant.
Greg Abbott still has power in Texas and Lara Logan just put Galveston County on his desk.
Ken Paxton beat James Talarico in Galveston County, and the official numbers are not a rumor. Paxton took 52 percent there, 69,943 votes, and Talarico took 46.1 percent, 62,051 votes, with Ted Brown picking up 1.9 percent, and every precinct is already in, about 134,598 ballots counted. Galveston voted Republican at the top of the ticket while they told you Talarico took the state at about 55 to 43. You want me to look at that and call it a mood swing? How does a county that just handed Paxton a clean win get swallowed by a statewide story where he supposedly got crushed?
Now keep in mind what Lara actually asked, because she did not hide it. Texans are looking at Governor Abbott and Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick to hear them and to do a statewide audit… not a risk limiting audit that only counts a fraction of the votes, but a real 100 percent audit that includes the cast vote records and verification of citizenship. I read that and I thought, why is this even a fight if the county already published the count? If Galveston is sitting there in the open and it does not match the story they sold you about the whole state, you open the books. You do not sample a sliver, pat yourself on the back, and tell everybody else to go home.
And yet the people who still hold power can wait you out… they can call you crazy, they can say the canvass will handle it, they can bury what makes them uncomfortable and hope you get tired. Lara asked the question they hate. If the leaders still in power do not do the right thing, if they ignore what is blatantly obvious and once again bury the fraud, then are we supposed to understand that they have been bought off? Why else would you cower when your entire state and the Republic is at stake?
You have a choice, Greg Abbott, and you have one too, Dan Patrick. Order the real statewide audit with the cast vote records and the citizenship checks, or tell every Texan watching Galveston that their own eyes do not count. James Talarico does not get a U.S. Senate seat handed to him while a county like that is sitting on the table unanswered.
Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, do the 100 percent audit. Cast vote records. Citizenship. The whole state. No fraction, no sample, no burying it.
Pray, Stand, Speak, ACT.
Love,
What all of you good people are thinking

I said as much at the time that the immediate reactions were hilarious. Trying to evaluate these situations against each other is apples to oranges. Sumrall won head to head but also has much worse losses than Golesh.
They’re still paying to air Protect College Sports Act ads on television. That’s just lighting money on fire at this point. This Congress is already not going to be able to get it done by January, and it’s dust in the wind the moment the next Congress is sworn in.

Whew.
All the ugly qualities remain, but Auburn is a road win in Starkville away from going into the Iron Bowl 7-4 in Golesh’s first season. Really good opportunity next week to cement a winning season.

Surely DJ Durkin, a coach Auburn saw as worth retaining to an extreme degree, can secure a stop in 33 seconds against a three-win Arkansas, right?
Byrum Brown has to be the most mixed bag of a QB I can remember at Auburn. When he’s struggling, the offense is bad for long stretches, then he pulls off a Cam Newton/Nick Marshall-esque play or sequence and reminds you he’s the FBS’s active touchdown leader.
It is becoming increasingly possible that Auburn ends up with more opening-drive points on defense than on offense this season because of that Southern Miss pick-six.
