Now this will be a solid double-header….all four programs are doing somewhat well and once Dooley gets recruiting,Tenneessee will rebound quickly. Too bad Michigan’s yellow streak continued and they bailed on a chance to play Alabama next year.

The two teams played last year in Auburn. Auburn barely won in OT. They will play again this year in Clemson, so the 2012 game will be the 4th year in a row the two teams will have met.
