I bet you had to take your shoes off to do the math!
Michigan basketball has a 96% graduation rate. Auburn has a 94% graduation rate. Not that much difference Stump!

Respectful inquiry…

I’ve been traveling to Auburn away games since early 80’s and looking forward to our first trip to Norman this year.
We met, hosted and tailgated with some great folks from Oklahoma last year in Auburn.
I make travel reservations early in the year to avoid the hassle and increase cost as the season gets closer.
I live in the north Georgia mountains in an area that was predominantly Cherokee prior to the Trail of Tears. The valley that we live in was once a passage for De Soto (Bama fans…not the car!) as well as one of the routes taken on the trail as North Carolina,Tennessee and Georgia was “displaced”. Rich in history.
As one with continued interest to learn more of the true history of Native Americans can someone please give me some insight, reliable web information, personal advice as to areas to visit that are deeper than main tourist spots?
Flying to Oklahoma City and staying 4-5 days either before or after the game.,

Thank you!

“ I know emotions run high when playing rival schools, but this game had that and much more. What I didn’t see, however, was class and respect among the student section and a few fans in general. Chanting “F*ck Auburn” and throwing things on the court is simply classless.”
“For some, the student section went too far against Auburn. Obscenities were chanted throughout the game. Auburn coach Bruce Pearl was the subject of constant harassment. At one point, Alabama coach Nate Oats grabbed a microphone and told students to stop being “stupid” by throwing things on the court.”
“”I never saw what the students tossed onto the court, but everyone witnessed Oats breaking that clipboard in the game against Missouri. Pieces went all over the hardwood and Oats received a technical foul. The moment had more than a touch of irony considering Oats scolded the students at Coleman Coliseum because the refs threatened to give Alabama a tech.”
“Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not strive to look better by making others look worse.”

So what does your comment imply about Nick and Ms.Terry?

“Saban also emphasized his personal relationship with Freeze, saying, "He has been a friend that I have shared ideas with, spent time with, know his family, as does Miss Terry know his family".
“The relationship with Freeze seems to be closer than other coaches, as it was made known at SEC Media Days that Freeze and his wife vacation with the Sabans.”

More than likely the only Bama game you have attended in “Running of the Gumps”.

“Lay off the Spike Harvey and STFU!
You do not have a clue what goes on in T-town.

Brutal travel for Auburn fans. Waco, Norman & College Station back to back then Arky and Nashville. That’s a lot of $$$.
Damn give us back Tenn, Florida, LSU.
15 years later and Cam is still the Undisputed “Jimmy Rustler” of the Rant!
Responding to Roll Tide 1987… I’m over 21 and do what I want.
Do not leave out the NCAA probation, Antonio Langham saga.
n the 2024 fiscal year, the University of Alabama's athletic department reported $234.8 million in revenue and $262.8 million in expenses, resulting in a $27.9 million loss. This was the second consecutive year of a loss for the department.
Using pocket change or Monopoly money? You broke.

Go read the stats and look at Auburn’s scoring tonight. TEAM!
Harvey… lay off the Spike. Broome best that arse with one leg!

Bama and UGA have played at Auburn for years. The increase is related to NIL.
You left off the part where UGA fans were told not to rush the field as well as the water was turned on the UGA fans in the stands because they were shaking the rails loose and damaging property.

Conner: Well, we discussed this at length before the game. We had made up our mind — when I redid the field and got it in good shape, we weren’t going to let the fans on it. They could destroy more grass than the players during the game. We told them (Georgia fans) ‘don’t go on the field, you’re not going to be allowed on the field.’ But they went on there and so we opened it up on them and got them a little wet. Coach Dye laughed about it, he said they needed a bath anyways.

“Conner: They were grabbing at the turf. They wanted a piece of the grass. Only a few of them got out there, but some of them got real wet in the stands, some who weren’t leaving. They didn’t like that. It took a while to get them out of there. Some of them in the stands shook the rails loose on one end. They (the cannons) turn 360 degrees. You could turn them all the way around, you know. We didn’t have full pressure on them ‘cause there wasn’t enough pressure to run all of them.”

@ Baylor, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Vandy are tough road games. Oklahoma and Texas A&M are back to back.
