First Post: Sunday of Week One

Hey everyone. Well, we made it. You're now looking at game week. It's time for the cloaches' conjecture about the depth chart to become firm decisions that will stand. I'm looking forward to getting answers to my questions about Nick Fairley (where will he play: DE or DT?), Tyrik Rollison (redshirt or not?), Mike Goggans (is he a tackle now?), Daren Bates (is he going to be a starter?) and "local" player Anthony Gulley (is he really part of the 2009 picture?).

I said yesterday that I would trim the list below today. I instead will wait until Monday morning. This is your last chance!

Here's the Auburn situation at this moment:
