In relation to this weekend's football game in Auburn.

In actual percentages...who do you think comes out larger in the form of percentages in filling Jordan-Hare stadium out this Saturday, in relation to the same criteria at the Iron Bowl being playing at Bryant-Denny?

Jordan-Hare probably gets 75% of of actual graduates in terms of our commitment.

Bryant-Denny might have about 14% when tickets are cheap enough.

I truly cannot stand T-shirt fans. And side-walkers are the absolute worst.

Quality over quantity.

Alabama is objectively a far superior institution of higher education than Aubarn.

Already trying to find a moral victory before the game? Bow up, baw.

We are about dead even in educational quality. I didn't ask that question, however.

I think a much, much fairer comparison is between the relative strengths of each department/college.

It's like bragging about your English degree from Vanderbilt to the dude with a MechE degree from Mississippi State. What you study is more important than where.

Nice stats.

But where is your degree from if I may ask?

Side walkers and t-shirt fans generally can't afford tickets to the Iron Bowl. The ones that can, have very good jobs and I don't give a shite if they got a degree or not.

I attended UA, as did my father, grandfather, etc.,...but I dropped off the grid for a while before completing school somewhere else. What exactly does that make me? I've always been curious.

Numbers don't lie. Jordan-Hare is absolutely FULL of our graduates each year.

Bryant-Denny just puts a sale up in Wal-Mart every season for $2.99 T-shirts, and fans go wild.

Try getting an engineering degree for 3 whole dollars.

Southeast Alabama is absolutely filled with T-shirt Auburn fans. The vast vast majority of your fans in stadium and out did not go to the school, just like every other SEC school except Vandy. You have sidewalkers everywhere

Just another self-promoting Auburn myth

In my opinion, if you have a college degree or a decent career and you have some sort of affiliation to the state, you don't fit into either category - both of which carry negative connotations.

You know your football team is fricked when you're searching so hard for a moral victory you post some bullshite like the OP.

Even if I remember Homer Smith and Mal Moore eating dinner at my house? Or getting a watch from Mal for my 13th birthday?

Yep, and most Auburn fans I know have serious inferiority complexes, so it makes perfect sense that they would gravitate towards Auburn.

When I was a kid on the playground we had Auburn and Alabama red rover teams. We'd argue in between class about Patrick Nix and Jay Barker and 12 National Championships. We were just kids. No one ever told us we were sidewalkers and we shouldn't have been fans

I think every fan base in the SEC would agree that bama is SidewalkerU.
