Dom1ni0n 51 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Many here were felt Alabama would win this game by at least two scores. The popular opinion was that the UF defense would be solid, but offensively they were not good enough to score many points against Bama's D at home. Against an upper crust SEC team, UF looked like mush overall. This game ebb and flowed almost as I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaGrad03 146 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 not true especially in engineering.even UAH is more repected than uat in that field Sigh OK. Bama outranks Auburn every year for what, 6-7 years in a row, they're ALWAYS within 10-15 spots of one another, yet somehow a degree from Auburn is worth more than a degree from Alabama. You think too highly of an undergraduate degree from a non Ivy League (signed, someone with a degree from the college of engineering). You can point out individual degrees where one school outranks the other. Alabama has one of the best law schools in the nation. But we're still talking about undergraduate degrees - NOT from an Ivy League, not from Vandy, not from Northwestern or Cal. We're talking about the ~90th best ranked public universities. Nobody's going to look at a degree, in general, from Auburn and favor it over Alabama. And vice versa. (And you can't cite UAH's engineering raking being better than Bama's - by 8 spots btw - and ignore the VERY SAME ranking body that ranks Alabama ahead of Auburn overall) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaGrad03 146 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 It doesn't matter. You're splitting hairs. NOBODY is ranking Auburn 20th and Alabama 181st. They're all very very close. And you guys were ALLLLL about the US News rankings when you were ahead of us, now they're apparently worthless. And people aren't handing out jobs to Auburn grads that they aren't handing out to Alabama. Nobody is saying "he had a 2.8 at Auburn, but this other guy had a 3.5 at Bama - let's go with the Auburn guy" They're the SAME school. They're the same level of toughness to earn a degree from there. Stop thinking Auburn is Vanderbilt. They're not. They're a middle tier big state school. There's nothing wrong with that.

You just feel compelled to defend bammer even when it makes no sense. bammer is a football/party school with an entitlement problem. It's easy to get into and easy to get a degree from.That's part of the problem in this state. BTW...the majority of physicians in my hospital have degrees from Vandy and AU. My boss even admits that an AU education is superior to bammer. But you just keep on with your little bammie delusions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Define 'most widely accepted ranking body' -- because US News is a magazine, not any sort of official ranking body; and their rankings are not very widely accepted. Also, you cited the US News rankings that show Bama ranked higher. You didn't say they were 'the same' until I cited other rankings that show the opposite (i.e., Auburn ranked ahead of Bama). You changed your story to fit what you now think are the facts. And, by the way, I do have an idea of what I'm talking about. Do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
