the state of Alabama is around 75% Bama fans. Therefore if you put that percent to the recruits, you get majority are Bama homers. This is because of all the rednecks that jumped on the bandwagon in the 70's with Bear Bryant. Once that generation is gone, the current generation will be more equivalent with Auburn winning more.

And I am allowed to say bandwagon cause majority of Alabama fans never went to the school or have even seen it before. They are called Gumps. Majority of Auburn fans are graduates and are successful doctors, lawyers, accountants, etc. Gumps drive Golden Flake trucks, work at the steel plant, work in construction, etc.

I've never been in a trailer park in my life, besides the first time I went to the Bama/Auburn game. Just an fyi too, Alabama'a accounting program>Auburn's.

To everyone else, Auburn doesn't sign 5* players, they want "Tommy's guys" (5'11 or shorter and sub 4.4 speed).

Yeah but Doctors and Lawyers kids grow up to be Doctors and Lawyers. Gumps, Red Necks, Golden Flake drivers, and Steel Workers kids grow up to be football players. It is still a losing proposition for the War Hawks.
