And not an out of state one.

One that laughed, ridiculed, and pointed years ago when Auburn was, yet again, being a trend setter.

Major, non-out-of-state university that laughed and pointed? Follower and copier.

They always have been. Hell, they even stole one of our fight songs.

Just an unoriginal school being unoriginal. Nothing new really.

Let me say what everyone is thinking....UGA is an unoriginal, overrated university that hasn't really been relevant in the sec for 30 years. Their fans are whiny, have settled for mediocrity yet somehow feel superior to everyone. In short, Georgia can suck my orange and blue nuts.

Just post a picture of Nick Fairley holding the crystal football and they'll shutup.

That's it. They'll either shut up or go on a moral superiority rant. Either one is a win.

They're also creepy board lurkers who worry about what other fan bases think of them. Down voting dick smokers the lot of them.

Many days, their 247 board has more AU content than uga.

They hate Keith Niebuhr for whatever reason.

I get that this is referring to UGA but can someone explain the backstory to this? Did they make fun of Auburn for having some kind of billboard?

They'll credit Pruitt for it.

Yes. Auburn did a billboard campaign in 2009 where these billboards went up around Mobile, Birmingham and Atlanta.


That was followed a year or two later with a billboard campaign that featured the BCS crystal football.

UGA fans made all sorts of fun about Auburn advertising in metro Atlanta.

Funny thing is, as I drive 85 in the mornings and afternoons I see billboards promoting Tech football, as well as one promoting Clemson season tickets and how close the CU campus is.
