Why do Bama fans walk around like they are the royalty of college football? They had a run in the seventies and have won 2 NC in the last 32 years. It boggles the mind.

Same reason Dallas Cowboy fans are douchebags. They mostly live in the far past.

Even our best football players in state are falling victim to this. I wish our program has this much respect

It was admittedly a little more than a "run in the 70's."

Because they've got nothing else. They derive their entire sense of self worth from the on field exploits of 20 year olds who don't even know they exist.

Did you see Roll Tide, War Eagle? What a shameful display of humanity. The only decent person in that circus was the arborist from Auburn.

They have to put up some kind of front. After all, they live in Tuscaloosa, the world's largest trailer park.

I walk around like a normal person and can talk intelligently about football without being a douchebag.

The way I see it, people are going to talk and you can't stop that. You gotta learn to let it roll off your back and keep going. Sometimes you gotta ignore the ones that are acting that way and just worry about the ones that seem to be good people.

Every team has fans that seem to be ignorant and just want to sit around and beat their chest and scream we're awesome and whatever else. But if you actually stop and think about it, there are more fans out there that just love college football and everything that goes with it and those are the ones that you can walk up to and talk about the game with or go to their tailgate and have a beer and have a good time.

We lost on November 5th and I never expected us to be playing for the NC but things happened and the teams ahead of us lost causing us to back up to #2 so it is what it is. All I know is that I'll be watching the game and cheering for Bama. If we win then we win and I can be humble about it. If we lose then we lose and I can still sit and talk football and get ready for next season.

At the end of the day I don't get caught up in all the bullcrap and trash talking because I still have a fiance, I still have a family, I still have a job, and I'm still breathing.

Don't let idiot fans get you all worked up.

because they are. And if LSU wins it's 3rd National Championship in 8 years, it will join the ranks.

saying they want to "restore the order" just shows even the players think they are entitled to anything and nobody should be able to touch them. you'd probably get a migraine the second you hit tuscaloosa from all the arrogance in the air. i would like us to not only beat them again, and beat the living dog shite out of them this time. a loss so demoralizing that saban quits, and sends bama back to the land of mediocrity. for you bama fans, that was only about 3-4 years go the last time you werent considered relevant. bama has one crystall ball, but hey, so does auburn. it takes dominant programs to win three in nine years. this aint the 70's anymore gumps. no matter what espn tells you.
