Poll: VOTE FOR THE TEAM YOU WANT TO WIN - OREGON or AUBURN

[CrimsonBeachBum]

I'm torn (No, not Rip Torn). I'd like to see the SEC continue it's dominance and BCSNCG win streak, but just can't make myself vote for the Barn or pull for them during the game.

11% for Auburn. Must be a LOT of fambly who are members of this site.

I see some people might be getting a Auburn avatar.

GO DUCKS!

I can't pull for AU. I would like to pull for an SEC team to win again. Really I would. However, last year on NC gameday I ran into a couple of Barners decked from head to toe in Longhorn gear screaming at me how Bama was going down. I have some AU family members. We all have them. Disgraceful, I know. Some you can tolerate. Some you can't. To the ones I like I try to be polite but at the end of the day I hope AU is run out of Arizona faster than an illegal immigrant on Cinco de Mayo.

A Duck Win wouldn't upset me at all. In fact it wouldn't bother me if The Ducks put a 60-0 beatdown on the Barn.

I just don't see it happening.

I don't know... There's a lot to be said for the barn being the first SEC team to lose a BCS Championship Game.

Ducks are the lesser of 2 stupids . I will never want the barn to win but i cant stand the ducks either.

You can pet a duck!! You can't pet a barn. By the way I really really hope the barn loses!! That was for BamaFossil!!!

 

[MOAN]

In games I don't care about I usually pull for the underdog. I figure Auburn should win so therefore Oregon is the underdog.

 

[ABamaManNTX]

I am totally for the SEC teams winning except one! The Barn

I honestly hope that Oregon puts up about 70 points on the Barn!

The way Bama started out in it's game against I thought we would do it except that Saban would not do that to an opponent. Then the fumbles and the 2nd half of conservatism occured.

Try as I might I cant. No way no shape no form. I dont hate Auburn University. It has a fine school and turns out some great graduates. But thats where I draw the line. Over the years their hate for Bama has truly shown and I will never forget the day Coach Bryant died , I was working at Huntsville Hospital and a RN in the MICU came running out of the break room clapping and celebrating Coach Bryant had died and Auburn would now own the state. Over 20 years later that vivid memory of her celebrating the death of someone just solidified my disdain for Aubarn . She by the way wasnt the only fan celebrating his passing. It might be trivial to some but that represents what I think of the Aubarn fan base. It was good to see Cheezit not winning the Coach of the Year.

Hot Corner: When it comes to Auburn vs. Oregon, what kind of Crimson Tide fan are you? | al.com

The final group is the majority Houndstooth Party. They don't consider it a black-and-white issue, but a crimson-and-white one. They root against Auburn no matter whom the Tigers are playing, regardless of SEC ties. Those are the folks who won't even buy gas in Lee County every two years. Anything less than total disdain for Auburn would mean they need to find a new tailgate spot. Their old friends would cast them out.

That's me! Whatever is bad for Auburn is good for me.

I won't be wearing any green or yellow, but I will be cheering for Oregon January 10th, 2011.

Go Ducks!

 

[BamaUndergrad88]

Since there wasn't a 'neutral' option, I went with Oregon.

 

[bama6364]

who wished bama luck against texas last year???? not any of the auburn people i know...you need to take a shower, because you are dirty..auburn is dirty too.

 

[Ldlane]

I can't believe that there are 28 people on this board that voted for API!

 

[THE BAMA IRISHMAN]

Yep, makes your head spin. Since the age of 6 years old there has never been a time in my life I pulled for Auburn. Nope, not one. Wasn't raised that way. Loathe the Barn with a passion.

 

[rolltd]

Must admit pulling for Auburn against UT, but not Oregon.

 

[jdad22]

While I might be able to agree with # 1 & 3, #2 will never happen. But Where did you find any barners rooting for us against Texas last year?

The Barn was more concerned with celebrating thier "moral victory" over us than rooting for us to win the National Championship last year. I want the ring to be just out of reach. Go DUCKS!

 

[BamaNation]

While I really don't want Auburn to win, I certainly don't want Oregon to win and start proclaiming western dominance of the SEC.

I'll probably still say Roll Ducks Roll but this game gives me no satisfaction either way. I'm conflicted as to how to approach it.

The choice I need is what my buddy in Atlanta always said in games like this: "Praying for injuries and hoping for a tie" (PS> I don't really want anybody injured but you get the drift).

Brett, what you said got me thinking about tie games. According to Wiki, the last tie game in college football was Wisconsin 3- Illinois 3, November 1995. The last SEC tie game was South Carolina 20-LSU 20 September 30, 1995. Our last time game was in 1993 vs 10RC, 17-17. The tie-breaker was utilized for the 1996 season.

As I talked about in another thread....Tailgating at that cesspool in '07 next to a group of "Flamesmen". Skeleton in a lounge chair that had Hounds Tooth Hat and a sign that said "Shake the Bears hand $5.00". I will never forget or forgive for making fun of a deceased person. I know it's not healthy but I have a tremendous amount of hate for those low-lifes.
