Or is it War Eagle? we're so hot and great that we have TWO mascots, though I like the war eagle more b/c it has a history from the Civil War and is way more interesting and unique.
Or the Plainsmen? that's the newspaper, you thinly disguised Bear Bryant accolyte!
What do you guys like to be called? The Tiger for football but with a cool mascot at the game. Does Miami have a dolphin floating around at their games? No...they're still "The Dolphins". Do ANY Tigers teams have live tigers at their games doing tricks? No, but the eagle flies to the falconer...very cool...so there...AND what the hell IS an "Aggie"?? Oh, an agriculture major? (wow...Thud....)
And yes Pickle I am a born and bread SEC snob.
Keep it comin'
The championship game had some bad calls, mostly against Auburn and the score should have been LESS close than it was. Still delicious.
BTW, I tutored Auburn athletes when I was there and they are not illiterate. All of them can read.
Can you say that about your team? Just asking...

In 1981 Bear Bryant was two wins shy of Amos Alonzo Stagg’s all-time win record when Alabama only had two games left. The #6 ranked Tide made surprisingly short work of the 5th ranked Nittany Lions and Penn State fell 31-6. What happened next was best described in Alan Barra's biography of Bryant, The Last Coach.
"Immediately after the game, Penn State fans accorded Bryant an honor that Alabama fans who were present had never seen the likes of. Hundreds of them lined up on both sides of the grandstands and applauded Bryant as he walked off the field and into the tunnel. Bryant was so moved that in the first couple of minutes after leaving the field he could not speak."
This action, no matter how simple, changed and forever cemented Penn State’s image in the eyes of Alabama fans. An eastern powerhouse bowing and applauding their beloved coach was truly a moment that encapsulated the essence of these two programs. Tradition, honor, and success built two of the most storied programs in college football history. Programs located hundreds of miles away yet so similar that they are almost copies of each other.
