GBAU83 212 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 For those of you even talking about calling the Nip in the next two weeks must not be living in Central Alabama. It is still plenty hot here to me, and I love the hot weather. I appreciate the nip and being able to sit in JHS with a cool breeze as AU scores again, but I fear that Aug 30 kick-off is going to be plenty warm enough at 3pm. But that is why we leave the call of the nip up to WarTim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarTim 3,456 Posted August 14, 2014 Author Share Posted August 14, 2014 Remember, The Nip has VERY little to do with temperature. It is more of a state of mind........Did I just type that?....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCWarEagle 4 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 As a longtime observer, I know that Tim is the one and only Lord of the Nip, but let me say this breezy 81 degrees at 11 am in Charleston, SC is a tonic for my soul. And it just showed up out of nowhere. Now if I could just get rid of these Gamecocks, Tigers and Bulldawgs ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly - when we were doing two-a-days in the hot August days, it makes you get in the state of mind or get killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passthebiscuits 6,851 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Smelled cigars at Toomers Corner tonight and saw the sororities gather at 5guys and Chill. Came home and blew a few leaves off the lawn. Saw 5 or six high school football players this week at work, all covered with sweat and grass. The nip is getting closer!

mdg929 24 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I just got home from a trip to north Ga. Ran into lots of F.S,U. and Clemson fans. The temp in the mountains at night got into the lower fifty's. I think it's getting that time War Tim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

passthebiscuits 6,851 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Nothing like shopping for groceries here in Auburn and hearing the marching band over the speakers. Need more, feel that excitement that overwhelms people passing by the big screens at SAMs playing classic Auburn wins. And the sounds of my girls practicing Two Bits in the driveway. C'mon nip you are close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBAU83 212 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Usually, with just a bit of a break in the temperatures, you get that slightly different smell when you cut the grass and that country song on the radio (Boys of Fall) but just haven't had it yet. Couple of high school scrimmages Friday night, lining up who will be with me at JHS for the home games, so definitely getting closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 With all the ALS challenges going on, the Nip is well passed! I'll let you know how nippy it is, mine is tomorrow after school :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augrad68 165 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Saturday night I was watching a program I had recorded and when it was over, I switched to the SEC channel and there it was!!!!! Auburn and Oregon tied 19-19. Chizik sent in Byrum to kick the win with 10 second left. Oregon called a timeout. Gus rushed over to Chizik and he was convincing him to do something else. He had Cam run another play (just protect the ball) and take it down to 2 seconds left then kick. The rest is history. It could have turned out a lot different if we had given Oregon a chance to run the kick back. We all know what can happen in just 1 second! Gus knew better. Man, I am glad we have Gus!!!!!! Anyway..... that definitely got me in a frame of mind for AUBURN FOOTBALL. I am ready!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
