We haven't gotten to play Vanderbilt every year since 1992 to pad our win total against them. Nice try though.....



True, and we haven't played Arkansas. Why do west fans see the weak teams in the east and turn a blind eye to the weak teams in the west?

Auburn has lost their last 5 games to the east, but yeah, they would just tear it up if they were in the east.

Honestly Leto. Do you think Auburn has been as strong as Florida the last two years? I would rather Auburn be strong than Florida for obvious reasons of the divisions the two teams are in.

That's easy, the WLOCP is leaps and bounds better than the iron bowl. Location, atmosphere, camping all week, split stadium, everyone has all their teeth etc......




I've said ti once and I will say it again. They are both great rivalries and have great traditions.

We (Georgia and Florida) will always prefer WLOCP and they (Auburn and Alabama) will always prefer the Iron Bowl.

It's hard to go wrong with either.

One game has mattered and been full of memorable moments and upsets in the last decade.

The other is meh for most all outside of their bases.

The LSU-UF game is more interesting than the game formerly known as the WLOCP (which is all you need to know).




One game is full of top 10 teams the other is not.

He wasn't implying 1-1 either. He was being dishonest, and many of the dumb fricks here will buy it. Just like the Vanderbilt narrative guys like him like to vomit. We've lost 2 games to Vanderbilt since 1955. Those two losses belonged to a coach who would be fired that same year.
Our 5 losses in a row to the east were to #5,#10,#5,#2 teams, UGA being three of those. No excuse for the UT loss.

It is dishonest to say that you don't have a winning record when you dont have a winning record?
Auburn logic. When well thought out and carefully crafted, it is almost as good as Auburn math.

Face it. The iron bowl is broken. Auburn fans root for Bama against specific opponents. The rivalry isnt even half of what it used to be. The hatred isnt there.

There are a ton of things inexcusable in Auburn. No need to single out the Tennessee game. You would have written a novella if you were to list the inexcusable on the plains.

Really? You're comparing Vanderbilt to Arkansas? Arkansas has only been a dumpster fire the last 4 years! They've had 3 appearances in the SECCG. How many times has Vanderbilt been to Atlanta? Do a little research man...

Always a possibility. I tend to take people at their word until it is plain they are trolling. That makes me dumber, not smarter, by the way.

See? Obvious troll. I doubt anybody would take it seriously that Vanderbilt is a better football school than Auburn, though.

The Tennessee loss was a tough one. Shoot, we let South Carolina get us last year. I hate playing teams that are struggling. Fans, players and coaches tend to take them lightly, and then they sneak up on you.

Fior the last 3-4 years? yes. Dude. It's be awhile since Arkansas has had a good team. I'm pretty sure I am not tlaking out of turn here. But my point is you can pick out the weakest team from the east, and I can pick out the weakest team from the west and they would probably be very similar for that year. Seems rather sneaky to say we get to play Vanderbilt.

Vanderbilt beat Arkansas two years ago. (The last time they played)

Since 2016 Arkansas is 1-7 verses the east.

English a second language? I already gave the definition of multiple, and it means more than two. Go ahead and look it up.....moron.

Since you probably don't know what a dictionary is, let me help you.

mul·ti·ple
/'m?lt?p?l/

adjective

1. having or involving several parts, elements, or members: "multiple occupancy"


Note it says several parts? Lets look up "several" now.

sev·er·al
/'sev(?)r?l/

determiner

1. more than two but not many:


Wait! What does it say? more than two?

Moron.

ETAA

I'll go one step further. He also said Multiple national Championships. Moron.

I don't attack unless I am attacked. I may be a lot of things, but I am not a moron.

Iron Bowl for sure.

AU is 1-4 in Bryant Denny since 2010. The average score is 43-21 in favor of Alabama so the guy who said Bama by 3 TDs is not far off.

Could it happen? Definitely yes. I'm sure Alabama would love to get some payback after last year. But I would never count Auburn out. It is a huge mistake to ever assume a win against Auburn. Also, I wouldn't count on past games to give any kind of hint to what a current game will look like. I've never understood the thing about "I have averaged the past 10 games scores up and that means we will win by......"

I am pretty sure that is not the way football works.

You might be right but my point is this game is not in JH. Unless Cam is coming back to take snaps for AU, I’m going with Alabama and the points. This game is not a toss up every year per common belief. More often than not, the favored team wins. This game is everything to AU, when they play at AU.

Webster seems to be fine with the “more than one” definition.

No doubt Auburn has some serious voodoo at JH.
They seem to lose a bit of starch away....but most teams are that way, too.

Fine. We will go with your definition, then. (Even though multiple is the more correct when talking about 3 or more imo, because you would typically say "a pair" or "a couple" when talking about two.)

Now explain away the multiple National Championships that Auburn has had in the last 10 years.
And we can use your definition if you would like.

ETA
I should say that I have no problem with you, Nino. At least you didn't enter a conversation by calling me a moron. (And, no. I don't want to know what you were thinking about me.)
