It is a beautiful campus. And actually Auburn has a fairly conservative faculty, which is more than can be said for Alabama.

But I grew up in Tuscaloosa, and have three degrees from Alabama.

Roll Tide!

I went to Mississippi State and really did not care for either team. But, after moving here, the Bama fans drove me nuts. Now, I am dating a guy who played for Auburn on The Amazins which started the punt, bama, punt yell. When we started dating, I told him that at least, he had not played for Bama! State has a beautiful campus, too. Many of their buildings are on the historical registry. State had the largest dorm in the country until it burned about 1959 which was before I went there. 1500 students lived in it including Jerry Clower. That area is the drill field now or was when I was there back in the good ole days. State's sports’ announcer, Jack Cristil is the best in the business. I learned football by listening to him when I was about 9 years old. Ah, what great memories of those days.
