re: NCAA Lied about NIL. College Sports are More Popular Than Ever

For a time, Nickelback was popular. Don't confuse the dumbing down of a product for mass appeal, with quality. All art and entertainment (which is what sports are) follows a bell curve-like course.
1. Unique/Inventive, but small following.
2. Then product becomes stylized for slightly wider appeal. People take notice and are lured in.
3. Then product is mass produced for largest audience based on focus groups and revenue generation resulting in something that is bland, characterless, flimsy.
4. Fatigue sets in, the base is uninterested and quits engaging. Why are we even doing this?
We had Nirvana, but over time they began selling us Nickelback.

Both schools will trend back to the historical mean.

Sumrall is waiting to see what Lane does. If Lane leaves, Sumrall is likely Ole Miss' coach. If Lane stays, Sumrall will go to Auburn. UF also interested
Funny. OM is, and always will be, a stepping stone.
There’s still time.
Are you 5? Ole Miss has mostly been the doormat of the SEC since the 70s…with a few decent seasons mixed in until hiring Lane.

After Durkin, why did you keep writing?
Goodness. Basically Auburn and OM have swapped places. Pat Dye is rolling over in his grave.
re: SEC permanently suspends Ken Williamson after Auburn-Georgia review

Also, JA scored on the play before the “fumble”. The ref was obviously determined that Auburn would not go up 17-0.
Go back and watch the play - Georgia was in the middle of an audible, not remotely in position to hike the ball while an Auburn player clapped to get the attention of his linebacker to alert him of the change.

What’s with all this Freeze remaining at Auburn? lol…he’s a dead man walking…cheaper to fire him at seasons end.

Probably was Auburn's #1 target, before pivoting to Arnold.

Tennessee has a very nice campus - similar Architecture as FSU, but a lot more topography.
UF has some nice buildings - but that's the swampiest dankest place on earth. If you hate cool breezes and dry crisp air, but loooove to sweat, then Gainesville is the armpit for you.

Vanderbilt's campus is a poor man's Belmont.
Your School's Best All-time Backfield
Posted by AUApostle on 5/16/25 at 7:35 am
The other best player thread started shifting into this. Name your school's best backfield, and lets go with a combo of how great they were over their entire career - College and NFL. A QB and two RB's.
QB - Cam Newton
RB - Bo Jackson
RB - Stephen Davis (arguable here, but had long and productive career compared to most AU backs)

It’s hard not to like Auburn baseball
The coach
The stadium (possibly my favorite SEC stadium with the upgrades)
Overcoming the scholarship limits that other states have easier loopholes around.
Generally decent human beings as players and not raging arse holes like Tennessee.
The homerun tonight from the walk-on Birmingham Southern grad student/1B coach was classic.
Just making sure everyone got a chance to read this gem.
What's UAA?

Under your scenario, the West only has 3 teams capable of winning a championship, while the East has 5 teams (who have all won a nat'l champ in the last 30 years). Swap bama with Vandy.
1895 - John Heisman begins coaching at Auburn.
