I could go along with AU to the SEC East, but he's off his meds if he thinks we shouldn't play Bama every year.

screw that. There is a way to move to the East and still play bama. If it means canceling the Iron Bowl, stay in the west.

Iron Bowl was played at Legion Field with a 50/50 ticket split.

He already ruined it.

Had the game not been moved they would've built a new stadium in B'ham years ago.

I'm fine with this. Keeping the UT game is more important.

I wish it would happen. The rivalry has gotten way too bitter. Auburn to the East, Missouri to the West, keep Tennessee as the regular East opponent.

Thank God for Tennessee. You can say what you want about them, but they will never want to run from Bama. I have a hard time thinking most Auburn fans will want to run.

“We get a ton of students from Tennessee and Georgia and Florida,” he said. “A lot of out-of-state students come from those three states to Auburn. I don’t think anyone has ever considered the students and the student body, and it’s their football team.”

But I guess you don't have any students from Alabama?

Pat finally sobered up enough to make one more salient point. Well done, Coach

I guess I am in the minority on this. I do not want to move to the east

Dye still believes UGA is AUs biggest rival.

I agree. I don't want the Alabama fanbase on our campus.

Relax, Aubies. Saban can't coach forever. Eventually he'll leave and Bama will seem like mortals again. Don't run. Stay and fight...........you know, like men. Don't forget, after all, that UGA is in the East. And you probably have a better record in the last decade vs Bama than you do vs UGA.

I agree. frick Alabama. It's best for us to move to the east. If we can keep the Iron Bowl every year, great. If we don't and it becomes a casualty, so be it. Pat Dye wants what's best for Auburn, and so do I. Dye stuck it in Bear Bryant's arse after Bryant said the game would never be moved. Auburn is the better for it. I will always respect coach Dye for that.

Something I think the Awbs either are forgetting or don't want to admit is a ton of their season ticket sales are Bama fans buying for the Iron Bowl. It was well known that Auburn wasn't selling all their tickets until the game went on campus.

I'd be fine with it going to regular rotation but the State isn't going to let that happen.
