I could give a damn if LSU goes to Tuscaloosa. Maybe they will walk out of there with a three game sweep and claim ownership of "The Joe", just like Auburn owns Bryant-Denney. Believe you me, no hate will ever surpass mine for Bama fans, especially those that went somewhere liek Troy or UNA and then claim to be the be all know all of Alabama sports.
I also graduated from the University of Alabama. I do not claim to know all there is to know about Alabama sports, but I do have an opinion just as you do. Frankly, I do not understand the hate, and think it is stupid. I believe in the rivalry and want to beat Auburn more than anything, but I don't hate Auburn fans or their university. I like to go to a football game, and enjoy myself. I like to watch the game, I like my team to win, and I also enjoy going to other schools and tail gaiting with fans from the other schools. I like to rib another fan, but I don't want to start a fight(and I'm not a sissy...I'm female) or go for the name calling. I wouldn't make fun of Troy or UAB. Troy is recognized internationally and a lot of their graduates are in the corporate world and great for career opportunities.
