Good morning! Darlin' you are right, the rivalry is so intense, one never knows who'll win the Auburn-Alabama game. Pulling for Alabama while attending Auburn was a scandalous affair. However, that was in the days of Bear Bryant. I remember a sign I saw at one Alabama-Notre Dame game. It read - Notre Dame's got the Pope but Bama's got the Bear - the man is still revered in this neck of the woods.

My support for Alabama has come back to haunt me though - both my teenagers are Auburn fans! Roll tide!

A great day for these rivalries.

Unlike some ex hippies here (ahem), you understand this is not silly men chasing a ball.

It's a clash for civilization itself.....*stirring music* ......where heroes and legends are made........*Crescendo in the background*..... where action leads to immortality.....*Band march finale*.....where Life ascends to the highest plateaus......

Ok, ok.......maybe not.........but it's fun!
