Richardson and Dyer were both five star recruits coming out of high school, and neither has disappointed in their NCAA career. This will be the first time the two face each other as the starters for their teams. The outcome of this game will depend on which team is successful in their rushing attack. Bama is playing for a spot in the BCS National Championship game, and Dyer would love nothing more than to help his Tigers prevent their most hated rival from reaching that game.

 

 

Auburn can also influence Richardson's chances for the Heisman Trophy Award. The race is currently wide open, and the next couple of weeks will decide who will have the chance to be the next to carry the award. If the Tigers can shut Trent down, then he will most likely not win the Heisman Trophy.

 

 

I think Auburn will do all it can to stop Richardson. In the past two years, the Tigers were capable of shutting down Alabama's former Heisman Trophy winner, Mark Ingram. I think the Tigers will have success in stopping Richardson, and because of that I think Dyer will have the better game. But what do you think?
