Oh, sure. Auburn has done a lot this year to re-emphasize just how much they suck. Played to a 3-2 win over Mississippi State1. They lost to Vandy and even Arkansas. They fired their offensive coordinator in the middle of the season after not allowing him to run his offense.
So it’s not like the giant sucking sound coming from the greater Opelika area is really news at this point in the season, but I still got a good laugh out of a post over on Track Em Tigers today about “Mudslinging”.
To save you from having to read the drivel, it basically amounts to this: “Take the high road, Auburn fans, and quit talking trash.”
Why all the mudslinging? I am not saying that Auburn folks have not been slinging it at others, especially Bama for the last six years. We have… no doubt about it. Do we deserve some of it back at us? Sure. But does that make it right?
It’s funny, isn’t it? The team starts playing like they’ve never seen a football before and all of a sudden we get calls from the Auburn faithful to take the “high road”… questioning the ethics of talking trash. Auburn has pretty much owned the Iron Bowl for the past decade, and they’ve done a lot of gloating… most of it earned. But many Auburn fans have sounded like they thought their run was never going to end.
Some have said as much. After all, how many times have we been admonished to face the “fact” our program is a washed-up, has-been with no future. How many times have we be told that the Barners weren’t afraid of Saban… he won’t make any difference, they told us, since Tuberville has a winning record over him. Oh, how their tune is changing these days as their program goes into free fall… now they just want everyone to get along.
The game, obviously, is yet to be played and there are a few between now and then, but if Alabama wins (and especially if they win convincingly) there are a whole bunch of Auburn fans who are going to have some payback coming… and I can tell you now what they’re going to say: “But we still have 6 of the last 7.”
When they do, be sure to tell them to “quit living in the past.”
The winning team of this annual game gets to drink milk directly out of the udders of losing team’s cows. True story.

This is too funny.
My mom told me that a lady that works with her has a daughter that works in one of the book/souvenir stores at auburn and they’re having to let people go because of lack of business. Auburn fans are fair weathered and extremely obnoxious when they have a good run, but they still have no national championship.
I love this post. It’s so true. They’ve been telling us forever to stop living in the past. I get a kick out of them losing this year. It’s hard to not gloat about our winning record, but I’m trying to be good and not throw it in my boyfriend or brothers face. Alex is pretty good about not talking trash especially this year. He already knows that his team isn’t doing so good. He still thinks they have a chance to win over Alabama in the Iron Bowl. They may, but we would still have a better record this year than they did.
My brohter however still continues to talk trash about how Auburn is going to win over Alabama. I try to ignore him, and remind him that we are 10-0. 
:)Yay. I’m so happy for Alabama this year.
