AUesquire 1 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Are you telling me that UA stands for Alabama??? I thought we've been discussing Arkansas all this time. Dang, BGB(that's BamaGrad from Birmingham ) you've got to be more precise on who we're talking about. Seriously, this whole thread is getting a little wacko. There's a ton of name calling on both sides and between all rival schools. No big deal. If it gets personal, that's one thing but UAT, Barners, Aubs, Bammies, etc. That doesn't bother me at all.

AUesquire 1 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 Now I've said "Cold Piss" before. But I can do that because we have about 1 Cold Piss poster here about every 3 years. Natures Losers. Now that's deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAG-91 1,488 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I've always been kind of partial to calling Starkville "Starkpatch" or "Starknaked"... I've seen Tennessee shortened to UcheaT, before. Others enjoy the namecalling, I just tire of reading it after a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarTim 3,457 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I simply never want any confusion between uat and UAB. UAB, after all, has a WINNING record over the past TWO years. Ahhhh......Here's to "nature's losers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bama Bo 0 Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 I know you dont think people are SOOOOO slow on this board that they couldnt keep up with the reference "UA" knowing that it meant Alabama. You have to remember, this is an Auburn board, you might want to rethink that statement. Just kidding guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUesquire 1 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Alright Bo...watch it, you UAT, bammerboob, bammie, Spuater and other semi-derogatory things that escape me at present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Tiger 4,261 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 "You folks finally were forced to play by the rules and have proven that you simply can't" Very true statement WarTim. Hard for bama fans to admit, but very true. 139466[/snapback] Kind of ironic coming from a fan of a school that had its first undefeated season while NOT on probation this year? hmmmmmm 139468[/snapback] I guess that's almost irionic as a bama fan who spends half his time on an Auburn board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tigrinum Major Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 I also find it extremely interesting that you guys dont call Texas UTA given your explanation of how you wanted no one to get confused. You know...they do have a satellite campus in Fort Worth. What about Oklahoma? Why arent they OUN? 140102[/snapback] A better question is, "Why is Oklahoma known as OU?" Their official name is University of Oklahoma. Wouldn't that shorten to UO? And we spout off at Bama fans for being ignorant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAG-91 1,488 Posted January 20, 2005 Share Posted January 20, 2005 Same reason the University of Kansas is referred to as KU...it avoids confusion with other schools. OU = Oklahoma, UO = Oregon UK = Kentucky, KU = Kansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,481 Posted January 20, 2005 Author Share Posted January 20, 2005 Their Helmets actually read like this... UK is actually KU is actually Kansas University UO is actually U oF Oregon But Oklahoma has their helmets as shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUloggerhead 2,267 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Same reason the University of Kansas is referred to as KU...it avoids confusion with other schools.OU = Oklahoma, UO = Oregon UK = Kentucky, KU = Kansas 140369[/snapback] Also: University of Colorado = CU University of Nebraska = NU ??? Must be a Big XII thang to switch the initials instead of adding the suffix initial, huh? Unfortunately for the bammies if they tried to do that then they would be confused with AU instead of just Arkansas here in the SEC. They'd still have to add the "t" to avoid confusion. So, which do you like better bammie fans ... uat or aut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUloggerhead 2,267 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 So its settled then...from now on, I call you guys AUA. I wouldnt want you to think I was talking about Auburn University in Montgomery. I mean, since you all obviously get confused when trying to determine whether its Bama or UAH...even though UAH doesnt have a D1 program. And surely when you are in a thread comparing the two schools (Bama and AUA) it is imperative that you reference us as UAT since people switch gears and talk about Arizona SO much over here. And Alaska too!The fact that you expect me to believe what you just wrote is demeaning. I know you dont think people are SOOOOO slow on this board that they couldnt keep up with the reference "UA" knowing that it meant Alabama. I also find it extremely interesting that you guys dont call Texas UTA given your explanation of how you wanted no one to get confused. You know...they do have a satellite campus in Fort Worth. What about Oklahoma? Why arent they OUN? 140102[/snapback] My, my ... someone is really touchy about all these initials. Quick, tell me which school should be referred to as UI? (3 guesses) Or, how about UW? (4 guesses) UM, even? (7 guesses) BGB, I don't know why Texas isn't referred to as UTA but I have a pretty good idea: they don't have a branch campus in Ft Worth but they do have one in Arlington (your guess was close.) Using the initials UTA would cause confusion: "Which do you mean, ... Austin or Arlington?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
