That might be funny if the vast majority of Bama basketball fans weren’t attending games 20+ years ago. I wasn’t around for Wimp, but most of us posters were there for Mark Gottfried (look him up, you’ll realize there actually was basketball being played in this state prior to 2019).
And Beard-Eaves was filled up when Cliff had it rolling. Always very funny when Bama fans express this faux superiority as if they always have cared. I grew up in the state with Bama fans as majority of my friends and family. They generally don’t give a shite about bball. They did perk up when bama made it to the elite eight and when they beat Auburn at home. So that’s cool.

Enjoy your team and quit spouting that Twitter rhetoric that those dumb Bama twitter personalities shove onto your feed. It’s getting worse than Finebaum callers.

If you’re trying to say that Bama has more FOGs than AU, well yeah…our football success is many multiples of AU’s football success. That’s just logic.

However, Bama basketball fans have been materially more knowledgeable and been around a lot longer than AU Basketball fans. Half the AU basketball fans I encounter don’t even know all the rules, let alone the nuances of strategy of the game.

I will say, AU bball fans are fully passionate, regardless of whether they know the game of basketball or not. They’ve been desperate for any kind of a sustainable winning program other than equestrian or swimming and Bruce gave that to them for awhile.
