Hands down, Auburn


Technically, we're not the "little brother" in our rivalry against Alabama seeing that our football program predates theirs. If anything we're the big brother, and they're the little brother who'll do anything to get attention, including claiming national championships 50 years after the fact to make themselves feel bigger and more important.

Auburn, by a landslide.

Can you be a "little brother" to a school outside your own state?

Would y'all have used the "This Is OUR State" marketing tool if you had lost to us the last 3 years?

Would we have had 4 pro bowlers either way?

Well, it wasn't a rule, love. Alabama didn't beat the system. People intentionally anticipated this scenario years ago. You felt entitled over a false presumption that didn't exist. In fact, the rules were written for just such an incident.


I'm not disagreeing with you. We felt "entitled" to play another team because we had already beaten you once. Didn't think we should have to do it again. I think you're really taking the term to its broader definition but whatever.

This would be a convenient response for you, wouldn't it.



Just with you. But seriously, what do we feel entitled about with the game next year? Winning? That presumes that we don't even feel the need to play the game because we deserve to win it without earning it. That's entitled. We want to play y'all. We can't wait to play y'all. Not entitled at all, we want to earn it.

Probably not. But chances are, y'all would have used similar language in a billboard if y'all hadn't of been so shitty.

We also remember December 7th each year. Does that mean the US is Japan's little brother? Marketing is different from obsessing.

What do you expect a motivational poster to say?

Im glad all the other fanbases are chiming in now too. I really intended this to be a huge flame war and not just OM-State.

Leave Ole Miss and Miss. St. out of it. One is currently the bottom feeder of the SEC while the other is historically the worst team in the SEC. I say Auburn to Alabama.

I woudl have thought that 6 pages of everyone disputing who was or wasn't would ahve made you ponder this more...but if you say a landslide then a landslide it is.

You feel better now...don't you?

Hah...and your first post was about auburn...you'll fit right in.
