Just interested in hearing if someone went to rival school because of a certain program. I have a client who is an architect and a huge Alabama fan but went to Auburn.

Any cool stories?

And for the record- I did graduate from UA. Married an Auburn grad and don’t regret it. The banter is fun. We’re a house divided but hearts united <3

I have a BA and MA from LSU and a Doctorate from another SEC school who I refuse to claim.

I grew up an Auburn fan but decided to go to Bama at the very last minute. It's weird because I still hated Bama while I was filling out the app

Yes. I grew up a huge Auburn fan though, because my dad went there and is a huge Auburn fan. I decided when I went to UGA that it would be lame for me not to be a UGA fan and go to the games and have fun with all my friends, and I fell in love with UGA.

That said, old habits die hard, so I am way softer on Auburn than every other UGA fan. I root for UGA to beat Auburn, of course, but like to see Auburn win all their other games, especially when I watch with my dad.

Yes. My uncle went to both Alabama and Auburn and cheers for auburn and the reason I got in to cfb. My parents went to Jax st and never really cared about college football. My aunt and uncle went to auburn tho and took me to games growing up and I fell in love with the university.

Unfortunately, I did not have the grades to get into Auburn.
