I work for Auburn University.
I am an Alabamian.
I'm glad to see both win--except when they play each other! Roll Tide all year long, and War Eagle on paydays.
As a gator Alabama,LSU and Fla. State are our toughest games every year.
Like the ferryman in Josey Wells, “I learned to sing Battle Hymn of the Republic and Dixie with equal enthusiasm.”
I have a friend who lives in B’ham. He went to Auburn, she went to Alabama. When the two play each other, they have a party. One group in the basement; the other in the family room. The outcome of the game depends on whether he gets to sleep in the bedroom that night.
