John Wesley Rogers, a 13-year-old eighth grader at Auburn Junior High School, knows one thing for sure: Cam Newton is still true to his school.

After Cam sailed into the end zone to give the Carolina Panthers a 24-7 lead on their way to a 49-15 victory in the NFC Championship, Newton headed toward the young fans in the end zone.

John Wesley was waiting.

"We brought our big Auburn blanket. I had my Auburn toboggan on. My brother went down there with me, and he held up the blanket," John Wesley says.
