Both of her older sisters and her mother graduated from Auburn. The older sisters were Alabama fans until Alabama chose not to recruit them like Auburn did. Auburn gave them a far better packages.For the last 12 years, the little sister has been all about Auburn. She took the visit to Alabama just b...

Well, I guess I shoud post an update. U of A has continued to push for my youngest to come to Tuscaloosa for a full tour. After spending several days in Gulf Shores, we made the trip north to Tuscaloosa for the visit she had told them she would take. They rolled out the red carpet. This tour was for...

Enjoy your trip. On Friday night I recommend doing the old Catholic Madison family tradition of a Friday night fish fry. Tip Top Tavern (the beer battered cod is better than the walleye), Kavanaugh's Esquire Club, or The Boat House. That time of year, the deck seating view of Lake Mendota in the eve...

Maybe the coaches are attempting to get ahead of the curve in the event CFB addopts the new NFL kick-off rules. They want 10 LBs ready for the new kick coverage unit? :lol:...
Sandkhan - guys you need to chill and pay better attention

I met Sandkhan several years ago. We sat together at an A-day game.
For those who do not know or have just not paid attention, he is/was a comedian that got paid to make fun of people and situation. He was a professional at getting under someones saddle and making them uncomfortable in a funny wa...

I am not sure what the point would be. They screwed the pooch. I am the only Bama fan left in a house full of Auburn ladies. Hell,in the last 5 years I have been to more games in Auburn than I have in Tuscaloo...

I can give you my view as an Alabama alum with a wife is is an Auburn alum. I have 3 daughters. Both of the older girls had over 4.2 GPA's. Auburn recruited them much harder and more effectively than did Alabama. Auburn offered a far better scholarship package to both of them. They both went to Aubu...

He's got an...interesting throwing motion. Would you call that even 3/4s or less (3/5s? )? I know he's really tall, but I wonder if tipped passes are a concern with that throwing motion.[/quote]
Here is my take on Austin...

re: So, who showed their arse after the Michigan loss?
Posted by Tw1st3d on 3/6/24 at 7:46 pm
From what I heard, Bond was the worst of the ones showing their asses and wanting a raise. Also heard he was gone even had Saban not retired.
Saban was all for equity except when it came to on field preformance. The only two mitigating factors to help with boost over on field preformance were sen...

:lol: You do realize that the win vs loss precentage Alabama vs LSU all time is 67% and that if you remove the saban numbers it only drops to 66%. Right?
Why would anyone want to go to Alabama instead ...
