This measuring stick shite annoys me. I may be in the minority with this, but i consider the state of Alabama to be lucky to have two top tier programs in the same state. it's no doubt that Alabama has a greater history than Auburn in almost everything. At the same time we have a great amount of accomplishments in our on right and exceed a majority of programs in the country.

At this point who gives a flying hell who has a better basketball program overall? We have both sucked it up..pretty badly these last few years and its not acceptable to me. Auburn made a huge step in the right direction with the new facilities and hiring Bruce Pearl. It was quite nice being at a game this year and actually having a good time. its no doubt we will only get better..I hope Alabama makes a great hire and we make the basketball rivalry as fun as the football rivalry is year in year out.

I'll drink my morning joe to that, and not just for sports. As poor as our state is, having two institutions like alabama and auburn is a luxury. I wish that was what the rivalry was based on instead of bitterness and hatred. It's what keeps me out of most dick measuring arguments... Most.
