45 min away from AU
It is now. It sure as hell wasn't 75 years ago. Little of Lee County was even paved then.

did not want AU to have any home field advantage, and could get away with it.
Ah yes, poor, poor AU always getting picked on.
Christ, you people whine a lot.

What a dumbass. Look at the Hyw System in the 1960s, remember TN wouldn't play AU in Auburn until 1974. GT until 1970. Hell, TN played Ole Miss in Oxford in 1950. UGA played MSU in Starkville in 1951.
