Auburn v. Kansas State Football Game

[SUPERCOACH]

MANHATTAN, Kansas -- Auburn safety Jermaine Whitehead did not travel with the team Wednesday afternoon and will miss the Tigers' nationally-ranked showdown at Kansas State, a school spokesman confirmed.

The senior is Auburn's most experienced defensive back and leads the team with two interceptions, and has played a team-high 122 snaps on defense. He returned one of his interceptions 33 yards for a touchdown in the season opener against Arkansas.

AuburnUndercover.com reports, through "knowledgeable sources," Whitehead got into a verbal altercation with a coach and was subsequently suspended.

Whitehead's status beyond this week is uncertain, according to a source.

Unless they were arguing over weed, I call BS.

The unnamed coach was trying to sneak into Whitehead's room to see if Whitehead was stealing part of the team's cut, but Whitehead caught him and then called the police on him for trespassing.

Money will do that to people. They should have just given the player a pay raise.

I heard this morning that the Aubs haven't beaten a non-conference team on the road since beating Virginia in 1997 - Terry Bowden was their coach.

Not that they play outside driving range of a tractor!

I picked K State because I don't like picking Auburn.  Plus, their luck has to run out at some point.

I love an honest man.

Does it count that the state of Kansas is full of tractors? Could this divert the attention of the Aubs while they marvel at all the tractors?

Some interesting stuff here.

This game has been talked about all summer at Kansas State.

The talk, hype and predictions end tonight when No. 5 Auburn and No. 20 Kansas State kick off at 6:30 p.m. on ESPN.

Before we head to Bill Snyder Family Stadium, check out these links for more on what they're saying about the Tigers and Wildcats in Kansas and across the nation:

[Auburn’s visit to Manhattan on Thursday is the most-anticipated Wildcats sporting event of the year. The Tigers are the first nonconference opponent with a top five ranking to play at K-State since Penn State did so in 1969. And unlike that game, which K-State lost 17-14, this game will be televised nationally on ESPN.

Tickets have been sold out for months, and they are selling for as much as $600 on the secondary market. K-State’s last two mid-week home football games -- Nebraska in 2010 and North Dakota State last year -- were played in front of electric crowds, despite losses. Decibel levels are expected to exceed both for Auburn.

I picked Auburn because I usually jinx teams I pick. I'm willing to sacrifice my pick em to see the barners lose. But honestly knowing my luck, Auburn wins by less than 9 and I lose on both accounts.

That's where I am too, Ban.  Just hoping for either a KSU upset or a big SEC win!

How about a Marshall meltdown?

Sooner or later, he's going to throw a couple of picks & he will lose confidence during the game.
