So you are trying to argue that Alabama alters their rankings because every redneck with a GED in the state applies to Alabama and gets denied while Auburn is such a prestigious institution that those types don't even try to apply to Auburn? Let's not even discuss the thousands of rednecks all over the state who go to Southern Union Community College and live in trailer parks while they wait for Auburn to accept them after they get their Associates Degree. The hypocrisy of Auburn fans is plain hilarious at times. The vast majority of both schools is made up of preppy white kids from the wealthy areas of Birmingham, Mobile, Montgomery, Huntsville, and out of state kids who could not get into UGA, GA Tech or Texas.

Or those at Shelton St. I was told that AL does not include "Special" entry students in their reported scores. Alabama has made a decision to grow beyond what the Alabama Education System is able to supply high qualified graduates. That is why the enrollment is over 50% out of state students. Alabama is trying to boost their scores by offering large amount of schalorships to instate students.
