    Newton Not Playing???
    I'm getting word that he will not play. Line will be under 7. It's at 6.5 @ Pinny already.


    Just a heads up.

    I highly doubt Newton will not play. I live in SEC country and there is no talk of Newton sitting this out.

      The kid is in trouble there is no doubt about it, if Auburn plays him it will be a dumb move on there part.

        Here's the latest update: Cam Newton early reports are uncomfirmed and at this point Newton is expected to play.

            rumors keep doing stupid shit with this line. I would say there is only about a 25% chance he doesnt play. That may even be generous. I still think UGA is a good play this week as I am on the ML and spread. This kid would be superman to not have this effect his game on Saturday and with everything out there Aubbie is sitting in a good spot to get beat

                Joe Schad just tweeted that Auburn AD is refusing to comment on Newton's status at this time... I am just waiting for the other shoe to drop here...

                  Kinda seems like they are not letting the cat out of the bag yet to try and keep UGA on their toes.

                    Would be dumb not to play him at this point if he gets caught wouldn't they still get a L for the games he played this season anyway if so they don't really lose anything by playing him the rest of the season.

                      I do not know how you or anyone would know before the Radio Sets in Alabama /
                      but I just heard Newton has been linked to the Kennedy assassination

                        There is a reason...if you show that you are doing something about the fact that you now suspect a player has received extra benefits then you are at less risk for receiving a stiffer penalty... NCAA shows more leniency when schools act on the err of caution in the name of institutional control.

                          Auburn was aware of the allegations before the season started- benching him now wouldn't give them any leniency at all with the NCAA. Might as well ride the wave while it lasts?

                            It didnt effect him last week even thought they were playing nobody. He at least seemed the same on the field and on the sideline. I think he already knows the worst is already out and the only thing now that can happen is him not playing, therefore I think he's gonna put on even better performances because this just may be the last of it.

                              I do like UGA on the moneyline this week. Auburn has definitely been solid but there have been several games this year they easily could have lost. UGA is a team that can just put it together any given week.

                                How can that be??? Your about to win the Heisman and maybe a National Championship. Now the cat just got out of the hat, your about to lose everything. I would be crushed & I think most human beings would too.

                                    Also global warming and 9/11. Early reports are that the NCAA are looking into allegations that Newton mat be involved in the Hunstville rape incident, unconfirmed.

                                          Again, this came out before last week's game, yet he accounted for 5 tds and over 340 yards.

                                            It wasn't all out yet last week. Kenny Rogers is doing interviews now. The sh!t really hit the fan this week.

                                                That is if he plays. He may put up numbers but may make more mistakes. Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow.

                                                      Everybody seems to be on UGA this weekend. Makes me wonder if AU is the play.

                                                        Hes not playing saturday doesnt take a rocket scientist to see whats going on, The dad already admitted he shopped him around 3 different sources are saying $ is involved auburn AD does an about face and went from Cam will play saturday to "No comment" in 48 hours and the Fbi is involved now. If you think NCAA can clear this up im less than 24 hours your crazy... NO WAY AUBURN CAN RISK PLAYING CAM NEWTON ... unless they want to be like UNC and USC. Its really an easy call if you put yourself in the shoes of the Auburn AD you can't risk the program.

                                                            He's going to play. This is Auburns shot at a National Championship. If he's found ineligible then all the other wins dont count anyway..... so they might as well take the chance that he will not be found guilty of anything and shoot for the championship. My opinion.

                                                                    it does matter because if they play him now and he is in violation the ncaa could pursue harsher penalties than they would have a week ago.

                                                                    but i think it doesn't matter to auburn anyway because so what if they get in more trouble in the long run they will still be a decent program after the ncaa penalty is over and if they win the national championship it would be worth it.

NCAA shows more leniency when schools act on the err of caution in the name of institutional control.
