Auburn’s starting tight end, senior Cole Bennett (#87) was nice enough to answer some questions for us. Unlike a lot of the junk on this website, this is real. Enjoy.

TheAuburner: Congratulations on graduating early. What kind of classes will you be taking in the fall now that you have your degree?

Cole Bennett: Right now I’m trying to get into graduate school where I can start my Masters in MIS. If things work out I will try to take some more telecom classes.

TheAuburner: Do you look at any of the early polls? If so, do you honestly think Hilary has a shot at the democratic nomination?

Cole Bennett: I don’t think it really matters who the girly democrats nominate, once they change the law, Arnold will sweep the nation and crush all opposition.

TheAuburner: Why do interviewers always ask football players which teammate of theirs is most likely to run for office?

Cole Bennett: I think they play too much Tetris and run out of questions to ask us, so they ask the same dumb stuff over and over.

TheAuburner: Will Rocky VI be any good?

Cole Bennett: I saw the trailer the other day, and other than sly looking a little baggy under the eyes I think it has potential. Worse case scenario it will be better than Rocky V. I’ll be there opening day.

TheAuburner: Hey, remember that time you got that touchdown against Alabama? That was awesome.

Cole Bennett: Yea, it was pretty cool, wish I didn’t fall down and look like a clown, but I think I made up for it with my cool celebration.

TheAuburner: I think you’re the only Auburn player who has a signature move after a touchdown… how’d that come about?

Cole Bennett: Inspiration was derived from the world of bodybuilding, I really wanted to do a mini posing routine, but that would get flagged for sure. Look for something new this year that I got from a certain WWE wrestler.

TheAuburner: Are the new Under Armour uniforms cool?

Cole Bennett: I guess, I’ve only seen pictures; word is that Russell is shooting out the tires of all the UA delivery trucks.

TheAuburner: What was Arnold’s greatest movie; Junior or Kindergarten Cop?

Cole Bennett: Trick question, it was actually Jingle All the Way, “I’m Turbo MAN!!!!”

TheAuburner: Which team member is most likely to run for office?

Cole Bennett: Kenny Irons, kid never sleeps, they would love that on capital hill.
