Hell yeah Arkansas and Mississippi are better Georgia too. You gone through Birmingham lately?
The roads suck, it looks like it is stuck in the 1960s or something and they just let stuff deteriorate. At least in Arkansas we have a Cabelas some promenades and more modern things to go with our redneck surroundings. This is the modernized Arkansas, none of that 80s and 90s stuff. Hell even our hoods have been cleaned up and looking like they did back in the early days.

Campus isn't even remotely close. Alabama's is nicer. I wouldn't argue if people said Auburn was nicer overall, but neither is anywhere close to one of the nicer college towns in the SEC.
I know a lot of Alabama students who say the same thing.
You're just being a homer.

Tuscaloosa is a city, so it has city advantages and city problems. Auburn is a quaint little college town. If you like sleepy little towns, you could do a lot worse than auburn.
To me, Tuscaloosa is more fun, and Alabama's campus is lovely.
I live in Oregon, though, so whatever.

And I'd also like to add that the city of Auburn is better than Tuscaloosa by a longshot
I guess since you think so then it's fact....

What's more fun about Tuscaloosa? They provide basically the same activities aside from Tuscaloosa having the population advantage from all of the ghettoes.

I repeat . . . Tuscaloosa has Taco Casa. That brings it up a few notches.

More, better bars and restaurants. More night life. It's just a bigger city. I prefer that. If you think that there's some factual way to determine that one city is "better" than the other, then you are wrong.

As for the restaurants, With Opelika being literally an extension of Auburn I disagree.
Opelika's super shopping center "Tiger Town" beats anything Tuscaloosa has and it alone has Starbucks, Jersey Mikes, Moes, Sonic, Brick Overn Pizza, Jim Bob's, Buffalo Wild Wings, LongHorn, Outback, O'Charlies, Logan's, Zaxby's, Olive Garden, Chick Fila, McDonalds, Arby's, and it is still expanding every year.

If you think a single one of those is a good restaurant, I feel sorry for you. My advice is to go somewhere that the definition of a good restaurant is not "a generic chain that can be found literally anywhere."
Lol. Arby's.

shite. You have a point.
And the corner store too.. The fountain drinks and crushed/shaved ice there are the shiz.

You would know hardly any of the non-chain restaurants as I would know the same for Tuscaloosa.
The point was all of those restaurants are in the same location and tuscaloosa has nothing that matches that.
And 7 times out of 10 people will eat at the above restaurants over the non-chain ones.

Untrue. I've been in Auburn quite a lot, although not in the last three years. Before that, though, the restaurant and bar scene didn't compare to Tuscaloosa's. That's fine - some people like small college towns.

Thank goodness. A bunch of terrible, generic chain restaurants in the same place is blight, not a selling point.

7 out of 10 people who don't know any better, maybe.
Seriously, when "having an Arby's" is part of your argument as to why your city is better, you might want to rethink your argument.

Sounds like a shitter Midtown Village with a bunch of corporate bs.

Has the Bama-Auburn rivalry come down to which town has better shopping options????
Best rivalry in all of sports...

This. There's WAY more to do in Tuscaloosa than Auburn. Even Auburn's bar scene is a joke. But to everyone talking about the ghettos in Tuscaloosa, Auburn shares a border with Opelika - one of the biggest shite-holes in the state. Auburn's practically a suburb of Opelika. I also find it funny Auburn citizens like to claim Tiger Town (which is in the Opelika city limits), but dismiss the rest of the Opelika as if it's on an island of its own. Plus there are plenty of eye sores in Auburn as well, so I don't know where this notion that Auburn is the emerald city comes from.
But saying 'Bama is better, academically, than Auburn is laughable. I love watching both sides of the fence argue over which school is superior to the other in terms of academics. It's like watching two males with microscopic penises argue whose is bigger. Plus it's a fact an Auburn degree is technically worth more than a 'Bama degree. Same thing goes with the campus arguments. Both are nice and well-kempt. How can anyone honestly say one is nicer than the other? It's a draw, IMHO.
