Yikes

All we hear about is Ole Miss is racist blah blah blah, yet nobody ever mentions how bad it is present-day in Auburn. Every time you see it on TV the stadium does look heavily Caucasian. And I do remember everyone at Auburn celebrating and cheering Laquon's injury right after it happened, so clearly there's still many racial issues still "simmering" on the Plains, as fedora wearing Wright Thompson puts it. Why is this?

I guess because 93% of the population is white.

Pretty much every SEC school has some racism. Thats just a stereotype ole miss has to live with. It was only a couple years ago when i heard about the stupid corndog jokes and now everyone practically thinks we worship them. Point is we all have stereotypes we have to live with. Lsu is corndogs, ole miss is racism, alabama is imcest etc.

UGA is only 7% black as well. But it's 9% Asian.

What's your point?

Domestic minorities aren't drawn to swine research for whatever reason.

Probably drops well below that if you exclude athletes. Can you blame black people for not attending a school in rural Alabama. Alabama also has a ridiculous number of HBCUs. Tuskegee and Alabama St are fairly close to Auburn.

State of Alabama is 26% black.
Interpret however you wish.

United States is 13.2% black.
