Didn't you refuse to play Auburn for 40 years because you were sick of losing to them?

This isn't even a pot meet kettle scenario, this is worse.

Know your role and shut your hole.

PS. I can't wait until A&M comes to tuscaloosa. I will be on the 50 yard line 3-4 rows up. I will make this a must see, just to watch Bama stomp a mudhole and have you crying just like you did year after year against texas.

Lol so you did refuse to play them for 40 years? I thought your traditional rivalry games are of the utmost importance. Get over yourself, gump. Get ready to get rolled in Tuscaloosa. Johnny is coming.

Thank God both schools have been able to figure out the amount of expenses to be paid players so this series has been able to continue
