The jealousy


This is just silly. If LSU was where Auburn is now I would feel sick to my stomach.

Hey man, I want to break this to you as respectfully as possible, NOBODY is jealous of Auburn.

WE ALL feel sorry for fans like you that have gone "all in" (sold your soul) for a championship.

Truth is, until three weeks ago when Auburn wasn't playing LSU i liked them. After they beat LSU I was rooting for them and ready to be down with the S.E.C. but now I am ashamed to be part of the SEC.

And when it is all out in the open Auburn will be holding the bag, so cheer for your boy and enjoy the crystal but you'll know (even if you will not admit it) just like we do that it is the fruit of a poisonous tree.

how are you surprised that the title game of a 1 & 2 brought more ratings than a 1 & 19....give me a break


This doesn't say a lot about the SEC brand. If I were Slive, I'd be very worried that my product was that inconsistent.

I swear more than half of you have the worst case of bleeding vagina I have ever seen.


I'm ashamed to be associated with the SEC as well if their fans are this sorry lot.









Onto the topic, yeah I kind of expected a dropoff. This game didn't have the sizzle of a #1/#2 Alabama/Florida game which is a REMATCH of a previous SECCG which decided a national championship. Still, that's a pretty huge dropoff.

All I can tell you, Ross... I root for the SEC in every out of conference game including the bowl games. When UF and Bama won the titles, I was chanting "SEC-SEC-SEC", even though I'm an LSU grad/fan. This was the first time I didn't watch the SECCG, and I won't be watching the MNCG. I am just saddened by the whole affair, and the game seems pointless when I feel sure that it will just be wiped out anyway. And making it worse, another team is losing out on their shot to play in the title game. I'm just disgusted by the whole thing. You can call me butthurt if you want, or say that I have sand in my vagina, but it isn't because you have a better team that beat LSU. Bama was better last year. UF was better the year before. Everything Auburn does this year is tainted.

One day you might know what an undefeated season feels like. Unless of course you're like 65 years old, then you might remember.

you're mistaking crying for disinterest. it's not that i'm bitter about the season. it's that i now find it to have been a total waste.

you are incorrect. the ncaa acknowledged wrongdoing and the enforcement committee is still investigating. what you are referring to is the reinstatement committee saying they didn't have enough evidence to hold $cam out at this time

i'll say it again:

IS NOT jealous or bitter

IS disinterest

the question is, what's the point in watching after the bama game? there isn't one. there's no point in even playing the bowl games. pretty much everyone should have been in a different bowl.

i hope somebody holds his feet to the fire over this. if the ncaa does the right thing eventually, he's going to look really crooked. ms state came to him with the goods and he did nothing. i hope someone grills him

how can you not see things from our perspective? how can you not see that auburn fans look completely foolish? every major news source acknowledges that not only was he shopped but, money changed hands and auburn fans are acting indignant like this is some kind of complicated smear campaign. the ncaa has acknowledged wrongdoing. doesn't that bother you auburn fans even A LITTLE BIT?

Miss State has/had no goods. If they did this would have been over a long time ago.

No, a conversation between Cecil Newton and a dirty Miss State booster about money that never changed hands does not bother me in the least.

you're not very perceptive. the sec rant is telling you they aren't going to watch. they're not waiting. they're not even interested. and yes, it's because of camgate and not any kind of "jealousy" towards auburn.

sec fans chant SEC-SEC-SEC at big ooc games. they would normally be pulling for auburn the way we pulled for bama over texas and florida over ohio st. that ought to give you a clue as to why this situation is different. i pulled for auburn vs west va., clemson, usf, etc etc etc

The reason it was down 49%: It was auburn. No one likes a cheat,except a cheater.
