Eesh. You have to work on your insults. That sounds like "Bama lowered their standards to meet ours." I'm sure that's not the case, but still...


What's funny is since UA started making expansion a priority, each year it has become more selective.

"For the fall 2003 entering class, UA accepted 85 percent of the students who applied. Each year since that time, the percent of applicants who were admitted has gradually decreased. For fall 2010, only 55 percent of those who applied were accepted."

"The class’s average ACT score is 25.8, the highest average in UA history, and 1,768 freshmen measured a high school GPA of 4.0 or above, up from 1,725 in 2012."

He was completely full of shite.

The acceptannce rate has lowered because everyone with a GED from the state has applied to get season tickets and a chance to party on the strip. The bammers get to frame the rejection letters and hang them next to the "Dogs playing poker" artwork in their livingrooms.

Bama's a good school, one of the better universities in the SEC. I used to work with a couple Bama grads when I was living in Kentucky for a bit. I actually was part of the team that hired them and, believe me, they earned their jobs.

(Before y'all get upset, yes, Auburn's a good school too, and I mean that. I've just never worked with an Auburn grad, at least not that I know of.)
