The stats in the article are for 2007-08. Auburn played Clemson in the Peach Bowl at the end of that year

Listen I'm just givin the facts cuz I knew that a USC fan saying that they matched LSU's attendance numbers was a load of bologna.


never said it was anything else

USC also doesn't own the Coliseum, which kills a ton of revenue. I'm hoping Arnold follows through on selling it

not true. USC has excellent participation and last year tied LSU for fans in the stadium. I went there in the 70's and the stadium filled every saturday.
USC has the biggest bandwagon fan base in the entire United States. The stadium is full when they win, but it is empty when they are losing

Best keep holding on to everything Auburn is doing that outdoes Alabama as long as you can because I believe we both know even THIS number will change due to our endzone being closed in.

I guess if you can't win on the field you gotta find SOME way y'all won.

We have won on the field 6 out of the last 7 years. The stats in that article are for 2007-08. We also kicked the gumps arse on the field that year. Are you too dumb to understand that?


You can save your little speech about how things are changing, because I have heard that same speech from gumps my entire life. In the real world things almost never turn out the way they do in the gumps delusions

the only reason you can't stand me giving my little speech about how things finally ARE different is because it is YOUR turn to sit in the back of the bus. your pathetic measures are so well noted on this website that you even have people making a mirror image of you in bama fan form so that you can see how others see you.

your best trick is to make an informative OP that ALWAYS has Auburn ahead of Alabama in some way because you have a massive inferiority complex or an obvious fear that things have finally come to a halt in Auburn for a while.

you mention the real world, but you don't seem to live in it. you mention Bama fans living in delusion, yet you show more obvious bias and delusion than almost anyone on tigerdroppings.. and that's saying something.

usc MISSED lsu by about 6000 per game. that is a shame for usc, but close given that there is so much more going on in Los Angeles. Also USC have beaten LSU in attendence in some years Period.

Texas was #1, Georgia was #2, Florida was #3, Auburn was #6, Bammer was #8, and LSU was #10.
If this doesn't include sales of Wal-mart or Dollar General Alabama gear this is no way a fair study.

Tennessee is absolutely in the top ten, but since we are the only 100% privately funded athletic department in the country the Athletic department doesn't have to and chooses not to release any financial information pertaining to the Athletic department.

I'd have to see those numbers as I've seen Bama beat USC in numbers.

yeah, and there's also 8 or 9 million people living in LA vs. 700k or so in BR. Nice try.

That's after they gave up on their team and left in the Troy State game. The stadium was full at the beginning.


This is true. I'm not going to sugarcoat it. LSU fans did give up, and it made me sick. I was sitting in the EU the whole game.

But, LSU was down alot in that game. Bama likes to brag they stayed until the end of the ULM game, but the big difference was yall were only down ONE TD. If Bama was getting their arse kicked, and was 20 points down or whatever it was, B-D would look just like that.
