Why? It sounds like he and his players were actually victimized

If you feel threatened by a towel thrown in your general direction while you're in full pads and a helmet and surrounded by cops after you ran down the field directly toward where you knew there would be rowdy students then you're a bitch not a victim.

Throwing stuff at players is low,


They conveniently leave out the fact that their entire fanbase threw Zero Bar candy at our players when we went 0-21. But when they provoke our student section by walking all the way up to the railing that separates them from the students making their own hand gestures suddenly they're all self-righteous about a few water bottles and ppl shooting birds at them.

If we were to do that when we go into meth valley this yr I would fully expect them to react the exact same way we did.

Not at all. I hate the bullshite aubie spews. From the family thing to the academic bullshite that they blow up way bigger than it is. They would be ole miss without Bama on the schedule.

They are also as dirty as anyone else. They tell us we cheat, with no proof. Well, same goes for them, only, only auburn doesn't believe cam was paid. He was paid every damn cent. They also are the most penalized team in sec history. They say, oh, that was 20 years ago. So fgn what. They ARE STILL the biggest cheaters in sec football history as we sit right here right now.

The biggest thing is not that they compare themselves to Bama but believe they are the same as Bama which is the biggest laugh amoung the Bama nation.

Bama would be Bama without auburn. Auburn would be one rung above uab without us. It's why they don't go east. Take Bama off the schedule and season ticket sales die.



and this is why I have zero respect for bama. The moronic faction of the fanbase, which is the majority. They think they are superior because of what a bunch of kids have done, yet disappear when things are going bad. I have seen this with my own eyes.

UGA - Not really. Program has all the cards on their side and just keep folding. I know some of the fans and have some very good friends who are fans but overall, Not really. They whine and bitch about everyone else and its mostly just them being salty. I think if they could actually win one, it would calm them all down



This except for the last part. You think UGA fans are obnoxious now... holy frick. Wait til those bitches finally win a natty.

Respect all SEC programs besides

UGA- fan base finds a trivial excuse to blame away their shortcomings and trivial excuse for opponent's success.

aTm- have been soft since Dat Nguyen graduated

Vanderbilt- they're horrible every year

Not sure I get the hate for UGA. IRL they have their trashy fans like every school but online, at least here, they're pretty damn reasonable. I used to have a lot of hate for them but posting here has really diminished it, I still don't love them and I want to beat them, it's just not as intense.

a lot of hate ITT

surprised by the volume of whining about UGA I am seeing from a lot of Aubs and Gators

y'all can say what you want, but that level of angst demonstrates either fear or respect



having said that...

UGA's real rivals (listed in order of importance to me):

Florida - absolutely, they deserve respect. They are the top academic program in the SEC not named "Vanderbilt" and consistently field winning teams in all sports

Auburn - for years, they have been knocked for substandard academics; but that perception is changing. Why? Because they are a top notch school academically. Alabama has a reputation for being "the better school"; but Auburn has higher admittance standards lately. On the field? They are always a tough out

GA Tech - hell yes I respect them. They have managed to have a decent to better than average football program, yet retain stellar academics

South Carolina - here is a school with a disappointing history on the field, BUT they have absolutely done everything they can to join the big boys on the field. Anyone that does not respect the amazing gains they have made in football is either intellectually dishonest or an a-hole

Clemson - yes. I hate those sheepfrickers, but I respect their program

Tennessee - my respect for them in football has diminished because it seems they have created a "self inflicted dumpster fire" on the football field. I hope that Coach Pruitt brings them back to respectability

and I will say this - when you are looking at the schedule and counting wins before the season (you know you do it, we all do it); any team that you put in the "toss-up" and especially the "loss" category more often than not is a team you respect

We "whine and bitch"about other programs winning NC's?

When did this happen?Who's whining about Bama's or AU's? Hell, most UGA fans were cheering for AU in '10 and I can't remember anyone whining about Bama's run...yea we were passed about the outcome in the last one. I dont we'd ever pull for our hated in state rival to win a NC just to have some sort of bragging rights over another rival...about as pathetic as it gets.

Your fans threw bottles at our players after a TD and before the game during warmups prior to any "provocation" on our part. That's trashy. Somehow it's Clemson's fault.

"Lately" Never in my lifetime has Bama ever had a reputation for being academically better than Auburn. Sounds like you just took the shite talk BS from other UGA fans a little too seriously.

I only know about the admission standards now because my boy was applying for schools (he is going to Auburn)

But Bama is always ranked higher in just about every "list of top schools" rankings that I see

It's always Vandy 1st, UF 2nd

Then it is either UGA or aTm 3rd and the other 4th

Bama almost always comes in 5th from what I see, followed by Mizzou OR Auburn

I'm 40 years old and I have never in my life heard that bama has a reputation that is even equal to Auburns academically. Auburn has ALWAYS been considered harder to get into, harder to graduate from, and a better degree in general that Alabama.

Then why is Bama always higher on the school ranking lists?

I'm actually praising Auburn in that post, why are you guys taking umbridge with my comment?

I am making an observation as an outsider looking in...
