I mean don't get me wrong that Alabama's business school is rated higher in most publications but from experience, I don't wanna hire kids from there cause it takes them longer to get a hold of what is going on in an accounting firm. Auburn's kids hit the ground running while Alabama's are held back and on the short bus.

I don't get why it is so important to Auburn people to try and prove the whole bandwagon issue. Bama and Auburn have the same amount of students. State schools (ala LSU) typically claim most of the fans in the state. Also, in Alabama, it is pretty much understood that the more redneck people go to Auburn (students live in trailers) and 'old money' goes to Bama. Sorry, that's just the way it is. Also, Bama's business school puts Auburn's to shame. Auburn has a killer agricultural program; I'm not sure Bama has one. Auburn has a great veterinary program. Bama has a law school; Auburn does not (I think). Point is that Auburn fans try to portray Bama in the light that Auburn is actually defined by. Is that insecurity or what?
