Nothing else comes close to Alabama-Auburn or Alabama-Tennessee. The UM - OSU talk starts a couple of weeks before the game, the talk about Alabama vs Auburn/UT goes on the entire year.
Auburn's population is 38,000. They can get 87,400 into Jordan Hare. War Eagle!
Fear the thumb!
War Eagle!

I thought this one was over the top until I found out last night that Brooks and Dunn is playing on the parade grounds before the LSU game this week!
That was one of many things I miss about living in Northern Nevada. Both schools in the state serve alcohol at their games and there really is nothing that takes a person's mind off of a mediocre football team quite like some Sierra Nevada.
Wow. Alcohol at games? I thought that was a NCAA policy. I'm glad they didn't at Auburn because I would have gotten to the front of the line, bought my beer, and gotten back in line. I never would have seen a play...;-)
Q: Why does Clemson have astro turf on their football field?
A: To keep their cheerleaders from grazing at half-time.
Q: Why do Clemson students not get speeding tickets?
A: Tractors don't do over 35MPH.
You're probably an Auburn fan if ...
... You can play the Auburn fight song using your armpit.
... Your wife's idea of cleaning house is throwing everything out into the yard.
... You won't buy a Japanese car because you're afraid you won't understand what they say on the radio.
I have no more tears War Eagle...LSU Tiger.
Even where it runs through the Achafalaya ... er ... Atchifiliaya ... er ... Itchyfala ... er ... that swamp in Louisiana?
You ARE southern, aren't you.
Shalom.
Check a few posts down, I moved the line to I-20. ;^)
That is an awesome photo! LSU Tiger fan.
About Rocky Top:
Last month at a roast for Larry Munson in Atlanta, former UGA coach Jim Donnan spoke. (I will paraphrase as best I remember it).
A Georgia fan and a Tennessee fan are both facing capital punishment by firing squad and are asked if they have one last request. The UT fan said he'd like to hear Rocky Top one more time. The Georgia fan is asked what his request is, and he says, "Shoot me first."
Oh Rocky Top You'll Always Be
Second in the SEC!
I thought it was too, but I moved to Reno and was a little confused as to how the Nevada schools could get away with it. Oh, well, that's more beer for them!
Would you put me on your college football ping list please?
Sorry for the late reply, I was out of town.
I've added ya to the list.
