I know you guys would love nothing more than to be relevant but until your team actually wins something of significance, don't expect any relevancy here. God's honest truth. Decipher it how you will.

And yet we'll keep seeing you in threads about Arkansas. I look forward to it. Enjoy the rest of your night.

I could link it but there are several threads about Beliema still on the front page, that doesn't have ANY AU fan posts. You're full of it. I can totally see why Hog fans flock to Malzahn threads because of the past but from our view, we don't have that same connection. All one-sided.

I would venture to say that most "Auburn people" respect Saban, but dislike his unethical behavior. Bert is a poor mans Les Miles.

Have no reason to hate Bert (other than whining about Auburn). Saban on the other hand has filled the record books with future asterisks and false records with his and Emmert's charade. Then he runs around arrogantly because hes done something that half the coaches in the country could accomplish if they were given all the free passes and rules bent in their favor.

That's why as college football fan I dislike Saban. It's not fair to the records of all the kids that played before and ones that play for schools now that get in trouble for the same things he and his players do daily. It's also not fair to the coaches that had to earn their wins with the NCAA watching over.

Atleast Bert wins with less talent. Thats more admirable than winning only when you buy the top recruits.

Exactly. He's an outsider trying to make a place for himself, and he acutely figured out that Arkansas fans are obsessed with Gus-era Auburn. He's trying to play tough re: Auburn to fulfill his fans' desire to make us into some sort of rival.

I don't blame Bert, he's just playing the game.

I don't think AU fans dislike Saban as much as we respect him, for the force he is and what he's been able to accomplish.


I'll agree with that. Stars aligned for Bama to make the run they are on with Saban at the helm.

I would say we're indifferent about Bert because he hasn't accomplished anything to garner any kind of respect but yet acts like he has, much like the Hog fanbase.


Bert is just an arse without accomplishing much. As of now, he is much like Butch Jones. They run around beating their chess but don't really get much done. If Bert would shut his mouth and coach to the same level he has so far, I wouldn't have much issue with him.
