It’s Auburn’s first Iron Bowl victory since 1972. ![]() But that's not what we heard during commentary.Īgain I think I came off wrong, hard not to be a little condescending these days, always on the defensive :( I like Kirk, he sticks up for FSU all the time, I just lost a bit of respect for him during the NCG game. 1982 On 4th and goal from inside the 1 with just over 2 minutes left, freshman Bo Jackson who grew up an Alabama fan goes over the top for a 23-22 win. He put on a nasty move that allowed him to sneak by & then cause two defenders to run in to each other. "look a player fell down during the return!" as if that's the only reason we got away with the kick six. Karlos Williams layed out a block and then CAUGHT UP with Kermit. Besides 'great return man, he's got great speed' they said nothing of Kermit Whitfield.hey, ya know he was (and still is?) the fastest player on the football field. That's when the commentary shifted from non-stop Auburn praise to some evident excuse making rather than praising FSU for the halftime adjustments. I was really trying to point to how at times both of them seemed uninterested (once it was apparent FSU was surging back). Yeah - I think my wording came off wrong. If State wins, everyone in the country is going to be glued to the Iron Bowl to see if Bama loses the Iron Bowl, the SEC West title, a shot at the SEC title, and a shot at the national championship for the second season in a row. Either way though the Egg Bowl still has huge implications. So they played it as well as they could this season and didn't catch the right breaks. The thing is though, had State beaten Bama and Ole Miss beaten Arkansas, it wouldn't matter if they had shown Bama 5 times or not already because they would be going to the Egg Bowl anyway. And they had to do Bama-Mississippi State because it was a top 5 game. They picked right on Ole Miss-Bama instead of Auburn-LSU. The AlabamaAuburn football rivalry, better known as the Iron Bowl, 2 is an American college football rivalry game between the University of Alabama Crimson Tide and the Auburn University Tigers, both charter members of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and both teams are located in the state of Alabama. Then he walks in and sees the fucking Iron. Top rivalries: Iron Bowl, The Game, Army-Navy, Red River Updated Nov. So its 100k people gathering to watch students play a game he isnt interested in. He only knows it as 'college football in America', where a college is a school and football is gridiron football. Bama-Florida looked like a good matchup as well. The fact that the Iron Bowl is 'just a derby between local amateurs' is what makes CFB so fantastic. And Bama-A&M did look like a good matchup at the time. ![]() ![]() I looked at the week we played A&M, and the only other SEC games were Arkansas-Georgia and Tennessee-Ole Miss, and neither of those games were really close either. Honestly idc because it's at night and I'm planning on being there anyway.
