Look up the YouTube video about the political origins of the Alabama Auburn rivalry.
There was bad blood long before football.

1 game off makes me stupid...ok bammer 7-4-1 are you happy now?
I apologize for that comment, that was out of line and unnecessary.
But yes, as soon as you say Auburn only won 1 of the last 5 before the break, I'll be happy.

Oh yeah, and The Iron Bowl was when the two teams played yearly at Legion Field in Birmingham, which was called The Steel City of the South.
It's not The Iron Bowl anymore.
