Bama figured in all those postseason bonuses they promised their players when they signed. Hiding it in travel expenses.

We have to have room for boosters like Tom Albetar.

To be fair, we may have more money to toss around like drunken sailors than OSU. Hell, we only carry a handful of non-revenue sports... and a lot of them, like gymnastics and softball make up for big chunks of themselves in attendance, donations and coverage.

Ohio State has more men's teams than we have... teams. Some of their Non SEC sports include Fencing, men's gymnastics, ice hockey, lacrosse, field hockey.... friggin synchronized swimming... and most of these are men's and women's. That's a lot in scholarships, coaches and gameday operations.

When your team makes a $53,000,000 profit for the season you can afford a few extra bucks for a playoff game.

They recovered some of the loss by shutting down UAB's program.

Not sure about this bowl game, but in the past Saban has given players the option to drive because they get paid for mileage and there's a loophole where 5 guys can ride in one vehicle but all 5 get paid for the mileage (I think he said something to this effect his first couple years).

I am more interested in hearing you explain why a fricking Nebraska fan starts so many dumb threads on a SEC board

Same reason you wake up so angry at Bama each day. Pure stupidity.

Doesn't matter. AU has been bamas daddy overall as an institution and fan base for a very long time now and it isn't changing anytime soon.

Does 42-34-1 matter? More SEC Titles? More National Titles? More All-Americans?

What exactly does Auburn have the advantage in other than being a college in the middle of nowhere, that exists only because of Alabama?

I'll wait.

You lost the last time we played, 3 of the last 4, five of the last seven, 29 of the last 50, and you're losing the overall series 43-35-1.

In other words, if you think you're our daddy, then we must be Oedipus and I'm afraid Mom didn't make it home last night.
