It was just two years ago that we saw the evolution of a team into champions. LSU came into Auburn as the defending National Champions. Jason Campbell was a senior, but still very wet behind the ears. In the fourth quarter of the game, Auburn trailed 9-3, and then something began to happen. Jason Campbell grew up. He went from an impatient, frightened in the pocket, tentative passer, to a confident, poised, ice-water-in-his-veins, seasoned vet. You remember the outcome. Auburn prevailed 10-9 and went on to win a National Championship of it’s own. (Yes they did. It was from Golf Digest, but a National Championship nonetheless.)
Who will step up today? Will something “strange” happen this year? We’ll all find out in under two hours. Until then, and as always, WAR EAGLE!!
