My dad graduated at Auburn (API) in 1949. He worked at J&M bookstore while there. I grew up a huge Auburn fan. I graduated at Alabama in 1982 (my wife in 1983). It's not a long story how that happened, but it's interesting. My parents and I don't talk about the game, ever, anymore since we went 3 months without speaking after the 1990 game. It seems to work out for us really well. It's really hard to express to people outside the state of Alabama just how intense this rivalry is, so I won't try here.

Oh, I forgot my prediction. Alabama wins 17-16. A little inside joke.

The 1990 Iron Bowl was the last Bama game I attended. I was so happy for Gene Stallings. (and Bama)
