But that's not what we heard during commentary.Īgain I think I came off wrong, hard not to be a little condescending these days, always on the defensive :( I like Kirk, he sticks up for FSU all the time, I just lost a bit of respect for him during the NCG game. He put on a nasty move that allowed him to sneak by & then cause two defenders to run in to each other. "look a player fell down during the return!" as if that's the only reason we got away with the kick six. Karlos Williams layed out a block and then CAUGHT UP with Kermit. Besides 'great return man, he's got great speed' they said nothing of Kermit Whitfield.hey, ya know he was (and still is?) the fastest player on the football field. That's when the commentary shifted from non-stop Auburn praise to some evident excuse making rather than praising FSU for the halftime adjustments. I was really trying to point to how at times both of them seemed uninterested (once it was apparent FSU was surging back). Yeah - I think my wording came off wrong. If State wins, everyone in the country is going to be glued to the Iron Bowl to see if Bama loses the Iron Bowl, the SEC West title, a shot at the SEC title, and a shot at the national championship for the second season in a row. Either way though the Egg Bowl still has huge implications. So they played it as well as they could this season and didn't catch the right breaks. The thing is though, had State beaten Bama and Ole Miss beaten Arkansas, it wouldn't matter if they had shown Bama 5 times or not already because they would be going to the Egg Bowl anyway. And they had to do Bama-Mississippi State because it was a top 5 game. Edit 2: This next shot or three is for whomever gave me my first ever reddit gold. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go get white girl drunk. Edit: Whelp, I guess that'll teach me to make overtime prevention jokes. They picked right on Ole Miss-Bama instead of Auburn-LSU. Good Guy Michigan: Knows the Iron Bowl is about to start. Bama-Florida looked like a good matchup as well. ![]() And Bama-A&M did look like a good matchup at the time. I looked at the week we played A&M, and the only other SEC games were Arkansas-Georgia and Tennessee-Ole Miss, and neither of those games were really close either. Then he walks in and sees the fucking Iron. It’s Auburn’s first Iron Bowl victory since 1972. So its 100k people gathering to watch students play a game he isnt interested in. 1982 On 4th and goal from inside the 1 with just over 2 minutes left, freshman Bo Jackson who grew up an Alabama fan goes over the top for a 23-22 win. He only knows it as 'college football in America', where a college is a school and football is gridiron football. ![]() Imagine a bowl game getting played at lambeau or soldier field. Honestly idc because it's at night and I'm planning on being there anyway. The fact that the Iron Bowl is 'just a derby between local amateurs' is what makes CFB so fantastic. There should be some bowl games in the cold weather in the north or Midwest.
