Neyland influenced him to actually win some bowl games and National Titles. History has forgotten who Neyland was, outside some hillbilly arse alcoholics in East Tenner.

Is the difference between Auburn and Alabama the million dollar band?

That and about 20 SECChampioships and 8 major poll National Champioships.

I see how a complete fricking retard could confuse those things.

The GOAT coach never lost to a Bryant-coached Alabama team.

Kinda hard to measure apples to apples when some schools basically have one less home game due to playing a neutral game each year. Alabama gives up anywhere from probably 5 to 8 million dollars in revenue by playing a neutral site game as opposed to the extra home game.

He was at Kentucky, it took him coming home to the machine to make him the coach he became.

Great, now spend some of that $70 million to reinforce the concrete. Tennessee fans are one great play from that stadium collapsing on itself. Not something you have to worry about when you have a high school stadium

Comparing schools in this way is like comparing Apples and Oranges due to the accounting. The number one school on this list only sold 48000 season tickets.

Much more meaningful to compare on field results and secondarily attendance and facilities.

no they don't. they lose very little, if any. they still get paid a several million to play in those games. for instance, alabama and fsu are both being paid 5 million to play in the chickfila kickoff in 2017. Alabama got 4.7 million for playing Michigan in 2012 and 3.2 for playing WVU last year.

I wonder what Bama fans think about this. That's a whole lot of difference right there I tell you hwhat.


We're smart enough to know better than to care too much about profits. You don't become the most profitable by paying a S&C coach $500K. Take a guess how many fricks we give.

Pretty sure you play the same amount of home games almost all years, and you gain a lot of revenue/profit per game playing at a neutral site.

LOL, Bryant was a player on the teams that made Alabama and southern football. Get on our level.
