My parents both went to Auburn. I went to Auburn games throughout my life. I loathe the University of Alabama.

I assumed all of my life I was going to Auburn. My junior year of high school, I took my college days to Auburn. Told everyone I was going to end up there.

My senior year, I toured UAB. That tour gave me a little bit of hesitation in my Auburn decision. Not necessarily UAB - but my friends were looking at different schools and I never considered anything but Auburn.

Mississippi State had been sending me information, and I took a weekend and checked it out. I loved it. My parents loved it. My parents even said they had no idea how great MSU was. The scholarship offer that MSU gave me waived the out of state fees and covered tuition. I took one more visit and decided MSU was the place for me.

My freshman year, I went to JHS for the MSU-Auburn game and I was a little torn. I had cheered for Auburn all my life. But State beat that arse 20-0 and that changed that.

Same here, I was raised in an Auburn home, dad was class of '74. I grew up in Jordan-Hare.

I was an Auburn lock until I visited State, never looked back.

ETA: But in response to OP, State fans are just made of tougher stuff than you, I guess.
