     War Eagle, everybody! This evening marks Auburn’s opening game of the 2016 college football season! In the friendly confines of Jordan Hare Stadium, Auburn will take on the defending ACC Champion Clemson Tigers. This game will kick off at 8:00 PM Central Time, on ESPN. David takes on Goliath, in this one.

     Last season, Clemson went undefeated in the regular season, then staved off North Carolina in the ACC Championship game. The Tigers from South Carolina then went to the College Football Playoff, and trounced Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. From there, it was to the College Football National Championship Game in Glendale, Arizona. Clemson narrowly lost to Alabama in that game. Meanwhile, Auburn is the defending Birmingham Bowl champion, after a disappointing year.

     Weather should be just about perfect for this game. Dry air is in place over the area, and skies should be mostly clear. Kickoff temperature will be in the mid 70s.

     As always, feel free to join in and enjoy this thread. I’ll be here this evening with a play by play, and some fired-up commentary. This is what it’s all about, folks! College football is back! War Eagle, and beat Clemson!
