Maybe they saw the Give him Six t-shirts? That's the radio announcer saying isn't it? John Ward, I think.

If I were Alabama, I would drop kick the BS titles and just go with the "8" that are widely recognizd. That is still impressive. It would be like a fella with an 8 inch member claiming a foot and change. John Holmes you aint!

I'm okay with what Bama does. Other teams do it, why shouldn't they? They only get called out because they have the most. I wish the NCAA would clear it up, but they can't, seeing as they don't actually award the titles.

The only reason I ever get involved in the conversations is because Bama fans try to make fun of Auburn fans when they talk about 1983, 1993 and 2004...hey it was your famous coach that said "If a laundry mat in Tuscaloosa wants to crown us national champs, we'll take it"...Auburn only claims one title, but they could technically claim 1913, 1957, 1983, 1993 and 2004...as far as Bama goes I don't care...


I understand completely because I've lived around rival fans before and trust me I know how it goes.

But from what my Auburn friends tell me, they do claim 5 titles and he even showed me in one of the media guides. However, according to Wikipedia (I know it's not a legit source) they only award themselves with 1957.

And please substantiate that quote our famous coach said. I hear it all the time, but I can never find proof other than ITAT or Auburn Undercover. Besides, all six of his titles came from either the AP or UPI. So I don't understand why he'd make that statement...

And prior to this thread, you claimed 6. After you sign off of Tiger Droppings, you'll claim 6.


You have a reading comprehension problem?

Your existence alone is proof positive that abortion should remain legal.

As it stands, I hope you have no aspirations of becoming a lawyer, because your reading comprehension is absolutely contemptible.

Again, what's wrong with 1938. The AP wasn't the only poll that mattered.
