The Thoughts and Prayers of Bulldog Nation Are with the Auburn Family
The time has come to begin getting geared up for the renewal of the Deep South’s Oldest Rivalry between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Auburn Tigers, but, as I have noted before, there are times when even athletic rivalries as heated and longstanding as this one must be set aside, and this is one of...
Why the Auburn Tigers Still Deserve the Death Penalty
After Wednesday night’s HBO special reporting that the Auburn Tigers were paying players at least as recently as 2007, I’m sure some of you expected me to excoriate the Plainsmen. After all, I hate Auburn, and I have called for Georgia’s oldest rival to receive the death penalty, so this would seem...

Jordan and Howard were architects of Southern College Football. The late Southern humorist Lewis Grizzard liked to refer to Clemson as, "Auburn with a lake." He wasn't far off in his observation. In the rich history of Southern football, Auburn and Clemson are nearly blood related. In fact,...
A Dadgum Good Read... Bowden Talks Auburn
Until recently I've never been a huge Bobby Bowden fan. Even before son Terry's tenure on the Plains, I just never warmed to the Birmingham native. I suppose part of it had to do with Auburn's heated rivalry with Florida State during the latter part of last century. I just didn't like him. I also...
RBR Reading Room: Braggin' Rights
This week, Roll Bama Roll has invited Jerry Hinnen of War Blog Eagle -- by far the best source of information about Auburn football out there on the sports blogosphere -- to review Braggin' Rights, Bill Cromartie's book on the rivalry between The Alabama Crimson Tide and "that cow college on the...
