Im guessing we're all Auburn fans against Penn St this week,

I have a guy on my crew that went to the game at penn state last year and is going to the game last year. It sure is fun to give him trouble when they lose. Last year I told him its a lot cheaper to watch them lose from the house. I am a Kansas fan so I am speaking from experience.
 
Yes I'm an Auburn fan on Saturday, because a Penn State loss benefits my team.

This is why I don't understand the "SEC FAN." An Auburn loss benefits your SEC team from a recruiting and transfer portal perspective.

I agree most of the time. Like you said, what benefits my rival, hurts me.

But, in this case, Auburn is where we were so it's going to be a while, and most TN fans have some disdain for Franklin. He's not a bad coach, but people praise him for his work at Vandy until you look closer at the numbers. He "appeared" to be a sure fire going to PSU, but it hasn't happened.

I could really careless who wins.

Even If AU gets the upset they are still only going to win 5-6 games. No one in the SEC is worried about AU getting Big time off of beating a 22 ranked Penn st then going 6-6.

I personally just enjoy upsets, BIG 10 losses, and Franklin taking Ls. when you add that up it has me pulling for AU a little.

I was so happy when PSU signed him to a 10 year extension last year at $9.5M per.

College football is the best.
 
I hope this works. Otherwise, I'll have to ask he who shall not be named for help.

My favorite Franklin gif and one that dominates any Ohio State board when the topic of Penn State comes up.

Not necessarily. If "your" team plays any other team it benefits your teams strength of schedule to play the strongest opponent as possible.

I want Auburn to win every game on their schedule until the Iron Bowl. There is nothing more exciting than an undefeated Iron Bowl. However, once Auburn loses a game, I don't really care if they lose more.

I'll be on side "War Eagle" (And Roll Tide) this weekend.
