Do auburn fans think this is an insult? You chose to go to school in this state.
Yes. I am embarrassed by the state of Alabama. I wish Auburn were about 30 miles to the East.

UT better all time. Wouldn't trade places with them in a million years though, they are stuck in a state that produces very little football talent.
I hope they get better soon though, loved watching UT kick bama's arse on and off the field in the early 2000's.
Phil Fulmer is still the man for burning those frickers.

"Huh?"
10RC leads all-time in wins, bowls, bowl wins, SEC's and NC's.
That kinda says it all.

One has a losing record to Vandy and has never in program history put up 3 consecutive 10+ wins seasons.

Tennessee HS talent is catching up with the state of Alabama very quickly. They've actually produced more 4* players than Alabama this year.

^That is incredibly dumb and behind the times. Tennessee's recruiting base is booming.
Local prospects from UT's top 5 class last year:
Jalen Hurd - 5*
Josh Malone - 5*
Todd Kelly Jr. - 4*
Derek Barnett - 4*
Charles Mosley - 4*
Michael Sawyers - 3*/4* composite
Aaron Medley - 3* Kicker - rated one of the top kicker's in the nation
Jashon Robertson - 3*
Vic Wharton - 3* ATH
Jalen, Josh and TK Jr. were the highest rated in the entire class. And that is just the ones UT signed last year -- there were other HS prospects that other P5 teams signed.

This is simply false. You may not have followed Tennessee high school recruiting over the past 5 years or so, but it has greatly improved. Population in Mid Tennessee is exploding and talent is increasing yearly. Mid-TN is much easier to recruit than Memphis(former talent hotbed) because of its proximity to Knoxville.
Tennessee is actually set up for success better now, and moving forward, than it's ever been.

If you factor strength of schedule into the equation like college football warehouse does when they rank the best programs historically, there is very little difference period. Tennessee has won more, but they have also played a weaker schedule historically. I believe Tennessee is 11th and Auburn is 13th in their current rankings of best programs all time, but Auburn could likely pass them with a another national championship or two or three BCS bowl games
I was amazed at the idiocy of the post before I noticed who posted it. Got me again phan, you glorious bastard.
historical strength of schedule? its not like you are comparing an sec team to a sun belt team lol.
if auburn needs a few bcs bowl games to pass tennessee than auburn will never pass tennessee, since the bcs doesn't exist anymore.

The reply should've been to me since I asked the question. What is 10RC?
And I didn't debate the merits of UT vs. Auburn since it's masturbation anyway.

I ran for who gave me the best offer. Had one from Bama too but clearly that wasn't the best.

Congrats. You're school being 30 miles to the east wouldn't change the opinion of others of your education.

Well it would be a tad less embarrassing...just a tad.

You shouldn't be embarrassed by your alma mater.

Eta: Hell, Ole Miss had more SEC titles than Auburn till Tubby, I think.

Auburn has had some success recently but they are not a historically good program. Tennessee and it's not close, at all.
