Let them make the mistake of erecting that statue. LSU fans are going to deface the hell out of that thing. It’ll be unrecognizable.

UAPD has the plaza guarded when trashy fanbases like LSU come to town.

I'm not advocating statue clutter, but why do only football coaches at Alabama get statues?


Because football is the #1 sport at Alabama. It's what draws the largest crowds and makes the most money. Other schools cater to one sport over the other. Take Kentucky. In the 1950s, when Bryant was there, he was battling it out with the basketball coach for recognition. Bryant left after the school awarded the basketball coach a brand new car at a banquet. At that same banquet, the school awarded Bryant a cigarette lighter.

You won't be able to get near it. Between the thousands of Bama fans, and the security that is assigned to the Walk of Champions alone, you'll be lucky to get close enough to throw one of those gay arse strands of purple and gold mardis gras beads.

Football is the only sport of the "big 3" that has won a national championship.

Sara Patterson has 4 titles, and she deserves a statue imo. There's just no where to put it.

LSUPD is a joke. I’m sure the campus is secure and beautiful. But there are plenty of dumbasses who are going to try.

You are such a dumb fricking arse it is generally worthless to respond to you. Most here probably agree you are a totally worthless poster the board could do without.

On to your post...

I think we can claim however many we want


Why not claim 500,000 then. It is still bullshite.

You can go snuggle up next to your half of a championship that Alabama Polytechnic Institute won in 1957


Just to point out again how damn stupid you are, if you believe Bama has 13 then AU has 7 using bammer math. So your claim of 13 and hypocrisy just makes you look EVEN DUMBER. What a fricking retard.

Let's count and see, using 'bammer math'


AU has:

_0_ undefeated Rose Bowl teams from the pre-poll era
_1_ AP/UPI-Coaches/BCS title from the poll era
_1_ free claim since we claim 1941 (stick 2004 in here)

By my 'bammer math' count, you'd have 2, not 7.

If we removed all restrictions and counted everything, as you had to do to get Auburn to 7, Alabama would have 26 titles. LINK

When are you fools going to stop comparing yourselves to us? You lose on every count.

3rd place in the SEC and 18th in the AP poll = NC

I stand corrected. AU has 37 NCs! :nana:

Auburn actually does claim four (I believe) according to their media guide.

I will however laugh at the 13 title plaques. That is a total joke and the administration for the University of Alabama is pathetic for making that claim. And it is not like anyone believes them. Everyone outside of Alabama just thinks they are idiots for make believe title claims.



The only one that is bullshite is 1941. 25, 30, 34 were undefeated and untied Rose Bowl Champions. In 1926 we were undefeated but tied in the Rose Bowl. 1941 is complete total bullshite and I hate it.

Auburn only has an AP title. The UPI (Coaches) picked Ohio State National Champions in 1957.

But those titles are bogus because they were won prior to the poll era, just as our SEC championships, prior to 92, are bogus because there was no conference championship then...

Wait a minute...

Eh, let's see... I don't know if I should take the time to type this, because every time I own your arse, you never come around to take the beating, and conveniently vanish.

According to my "bammer math", Alabama has been awarded the national championship by a major poll in 8 different years. This doesn't include the 1925 undefeated season, the 1926 Rose Bowl championship season, the 1930 undefeated season, or the 1934 undefeated season - all of which occurred prior to the polling era.

The only year that legitimately deserves scrutiny is 1941. However, we do not claim championships for 1966 or 1977, both of which Bama was shafted.

All in all, Alabama has been voted the National Champion by at least one polling organization on 26 different occasions. We claim a total of 13 of those 26 - and have had a total of 9 undefeated/untied seasons.

In contrast, the only year in which Auburn (API) has been awarded the National Championship by a major polling organization was 1957. There have been a total of only 7 years in which Auburn/API have been selected national champions by at least one polling organization, and Auburn has had a total of 4 undefeated/untied seasons.

Again, I say no Auburn fan has any business brining up "National Championships".

Oh... and you might consider not referring to anyone else as a "fricking retard" after the thread I'm about to link for you. You didn't stick around for that BOOM either: LINK

You shouldn't have. I think you are such a fricking retard and have so little respect for your posts, I'm not gonna bother reading it.

Plus, I do not have the endless amounts of time you unemployed gumps do to jack off to your delusions in fantasy land where your self-worth is largely determined by made up self-serving bama football bullshite that everyone else laughs at.

Oh My Gawd Bama and Auburn fans arguing over the BAMA National Title again.





I swear I could start a thread called "UF vs. UGA history and statistics" and it would end with BAMA and Auburn fans fighting about something.

I've said it once and I'll say it again... we Alabamians are attention whores and that's all there is to it!

You could start a thread by saying "anyone who responds to this post is gay and I will kill your favorite pet" and Alabama and Auburn fans would still take it over, regardless.
