    Having attended both UT and Auburn all I can say is you are dead wrong about their fanbase and their games.

    Having sat in Gainesville, Athens, Tuscaloosa, Knoxville, Baton Rouge and other assorted places. Auburn crowd sucks.

    The gameday experience is average. The post game bars and parties are respectable. The women are amazing.

    :yes:

    I've been to Athens and I was not very impressed. I haven't been to Gainesville or Baton Rogue and I haven't been to Tuscaloosa on gameday. I will support that Auburn "crowd effect" is less than The Swamp, Neyland, or Baton Rogue. I certainly think its on par with Sandford Stadium and Tuscaloosa. Until my senior year of college Alabama was still playing home games in Birmingham (2001) so maybe I'm not fully respecting the size of the Tuscaloosa stadium.


    Regardless of experience, the records/standings speak for themselves. You can try to break the tier apart if you like, but bottom line UT,FLA,GA,AL,AUB,LSU are the top tier. GA is definitely the bottom. Those 6 are the teams with SEC championship game victories, each has more than 1.


    By the way, why the hate of Auburn? That is usually reserved for UT fans older than me back when there was a serious annual rivalry.

    I have it on very good authority that Auburn is about to go down hard. Within the inner circles of the NCAA and college football it is well known that Auburn paid Newton. I've heard DI coaches talk about the situation and the feeling is that Chizik was brought in to be the "yes man" for Dye. Dye had tried to "buy" Newton after his fiasco at Florida, but Tuberville wouldn't allow it. Once Tubs was gone, Dye pushed to get the guys he wanted. Supposedly, the NCAA has everything they need to present a case, but are waiting until the fall to announce. OH, this gives me so much pleasure.

    I don't hate Auburn. I just don't respect them.

    I moved to Montgomery from Knoxville for a job and have been here a little over a year. (Terrible place to live btw)

    I spent a few weekends in Auburn last season and was never impressed. Even for the LSU and UGA games people were extremely chilled.

    Auburn runs Montgomery and everything in between like the Mafia. This program is dirty top to bottom. Everyone knows Lowder, McGregor, Dye ect. Auburn might be the dirtiest program in the nation.

    I believe 100% that Auburn bought that title last year. Will it ever be proven? I don't know.

    I don't have anything against the Auburn program, I'm just looking forward to seeing that smile wiped off Newton's face.

    I will say this for Auburn. Nicest fans in the conference outside of maybe Vandy. I love Vandy games.

    They do put themselves on the same level as Alabama when truely Auburn will always be in their shadow.

    Gainesville is run by the devil. Those people are mean and nasty. They don't like Tennessee.

    Athens is okay. When you are UGA how much can you really talk? People were a bit trashy though.

    Tuscaloosa... rednecks. Typical Bama fans. Fun gameday atmosphere.

    Baton Rouge I believe everyone there was intoxicated 24/7.
    Incredible stadium noise. People were okay. Not as bad as everyone says.

    Gainesville can burn but I'm thinking about going again this year.

    Auburn should have their title stripped for this alone.
