UGA's allocation of carries in the 2010 season
Before I start, I wanted to share one of the more interesting stories I heard about the Ramblin' Reck, which directly involved the University of Georgia mascot Uga. In 1974, the Reck was repainted and the color changed from its old mustard to its current shining old gold paint scheme. Bobby Dodd...
National Media Targets Auburn Fans
With little new on the Cam Newton front so far today, national writers and radio hosts have turned their ire toward Auburn fans. Most are portraying Tiger fans as out of touch and unwilling to acknowledge that rules may have been broken. ESPN's Colin Cowherd was perhaps the harshest today, saying...
Is Urban Meyer Behind Newton Story?
Auburn Undercover.com senior editor Phillip Marshall is reporting this afternoon that Florida coach Urban Meyer is the person responsible for the Cam Newton pay-for-play story being leaked to the press over the past few days. In the story, Marshall talks of a three-way phone conversation between...
All Indicators Point to Showdown in T-Town
Around the state these days, it's common to hear Alabama fans say Auburn's football team would be nothing without Cam Newton. If we had a nickel for each time one of them said it, we could all afford to fly to Glendale, Arizona in early January. Of course, what's flawed in that statement is that...
Technology Makes Football Better Than Ever
I got into a conversation with my kids the other day about what Auburn football Saturdays looked like when I was a child. I'm 41 years-old, so I didn't exactly grow up in the dark ages. I was not around during the time of Jimmy Sidle or Tucker Fredrickson, but I do remember vividly Ralph "Shug"...
This Is Not Auburn's First Rodeo
Let the debate begin. Is Auburn really the best team in the land? After defeating five teams who've been ranked at some point this season, it's hard to make the argument against them. Has another college football coach gone from such lows to unanticipated highs as Gene Chizik? From a dreary...
History Repeats Itself on the Plains
How do you put into words what's transpired at Auburn over the past eight weeks or better yet, the last two years? If someone asked you to explain how this football team went from December 2008 to October 2010, could you? Less than 22 months ago, Auburn bid farewell to the fourth-winningest coach...
Thoughts on a Weekend of College Football
Auburn fans got somewhat of a surprise last night when they debuted at number four in the first BCS rankings. Why? They can thank the computers. While Auburn sits at number five in both the Harris and Coaches polls this week, the computers liked the Tigers better and put them at number three. That...
Rarified Air For Auburn and Newton
How appropriate that Bo Jackson led Auburn onto Pat Dye Field Saturday to face Arkansas. By day's end, 25 years after leaving Auburn, the Tigers crowned his successor. With apologies to Brent Fullwood, Dameyune Craig, Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown, Auburn fans are witnessing the greatest...
Please Welcome... The Ole Miss Bears!
Is today finally the day Ole Miss fans throw in the towel? I mean seriously, a bear as its new mascot? Haven't Rebel, I mean Bear fans, endured enough? How long can you look at old grainy video of Archie Manning and reminisce about the good ole days? In case you missed it, Ole Miss students...
