Not saying we've never done it. Everyone knows about our troubles in the early 90s
Do you think Bama's troubles in the late 90's and early 00's were ignored by everybody?

I have a theory that the NCAA won't put Alabama and Auburn on major sanctions at the same time. Alabama didn't get a sanction until 1995. Then got slammed for 15 years. Now, look at who's up to bat. Can't say the NCAA hasn't been trying...

Auburn went 4-5-1 that year under head coach Jack Meagher. They got the brakes beat off of them by Tulane, and somehow managed to beat Samford and Villanova by 13 points a piece.

We had a great year. Finished 9-2 under Hall of Fame head coach Frank Thomas. Beat Samford by 61. Beat all of the common opponents that Auburn lost to, except for MSU. Finished the season with a huge win over Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl. Awarded the National Championship by Houlgate.

The Wareagle reader (source of this information) should have included the 1993 probation for Auburn, Eric Ramsey.

All I can say for sure is that the Auburn admin must have sensational 'oral' skills.
