re: Let's all share why we hate Auburn so much

To start with, I hate their colors. Dark Navy paired with blaze Orange is just not my cup of tea. The name "Auburn". It's named after some bum-frick city in Alabama.

The fact that it's such a redneck school located in a small city in Alabama with cow pastures everywhere, yet people who go there act like they're attending a prestigious university or something.

Football-wise, their team is the very definition of Busch League. The best example of "Little Brother University" their entire program centers around beating Alabama, but even that doesn't seem to be enough. They can't reasonably expect to be an elite program, yet they seem to fire every coach no matter how much relative success they have.

Rooting against Auburn is painful. They seem to always narrowly escape defeat by the narrowest of margins - usually due to an absolute fluke occurrence like a Hail Mary or a Kick 6, or the refs adding a second to the clock, etc - and then they have the audacity to celebrate such victories as if they're the best team in the world - even if it's against Georgia State.

Auburn is like a cockroach that you want to kill, but it always gets away. You hit it with a shoe, and somehow it's still alive. It just won't die.

They seem to have some sort of cosmic contract with God to spoil Alabama's fun. Alabama goes undefeated in 2009, and then Auburn gets Cam and goes undefeated the season after - the first time in 53 years, and it comes right after Alabama does it. What are the odds of that? Just to take the shine off of Alabama's resurgence. Then they go on to have the best record vs. Saban of any SEC school despite hiring a string of dipshits at HC.

Auburn defies logic. They are an enigma. An entity that only exists to be hated, and to play spoiler. Nothing about their program makes any sense, they seldom have much success, and yet somehow they're still around like an annoying gnat that just won't go away.
