vatz22au 142 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Got this from another board and was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of this or could provide a link? both Notre Dame and Penn State have refused to sign a series with Auburn in the near future as of last summer...

Fluffed 0 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 i hadn't heard it but i don't doubt it. i know that was the case with michigan. there were confirmed serious talks about that one. michigan did want to play auburn... but IN michigan... and not make the trip TO auburn the following year. and we just couldn't come to an agreement, so talks were dropped. and i think michigan settled for playing vandy? and we play west virginia. but i do wish we could play either of the teams you mentioned.

Tigermike 3,034 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 It seems like I remember AU & Penn State had scheduled a series ten or fifteen years ago and Penn State cancelled the series didn't they? I'm not inventing that am I? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapstoneCAS 0 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I highly doubt that either of those teams turned down a chance to play an SEC team as their conference is always competing to be the best conf in the land.....But never the less im proud of ALLBARN in attempting to play someone else than Ball State, and The Citadel, my God I was afraid the Barn was going to pick up Girls Scout Troop 131 this year. All joking aside WSU should pack a little punch(Barn 28-WSU 14) and Tulane had a good recruiting year but SHOULD fall in a blowout(42-0), I say should because you guys have a bad habit of choking when preseason ranked.

Teams like Michigan & Penn St have +100k seat stadiums. They'd love to have AU come up there & help sell some tix for them but they don't want to reciprocate the favor. Plus, I'll bet they don't relish the thought of getting stomped on early in the season. And don't talk to us about the OOC opponents -- the team you root for just finished a uat home & home with Utah St ... that is, both games were played at home in t-town. If not for Utah Freakin' State padding the stats the last 2 years, your offensive stats would be even more pathetic than they actually were.

You should look at your schedules over the past 50 years before throwing stones...did you people ever play UT, UF, UGA, UAT oh and throw in a Texas and Maryland too...in the same season? Nope...you had Vandy and UK etc...you people always had the weakest SEC schedule of the powers...bask in your luck...and enjoy the fact that you are now relegated to past football history.

DKW 86 7,426 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 All aside. We have had series cancelled by PSU and Oklahoma. Back in the Eighties and Early nineties. I had the schedules back then with the games already printed on them. PSU and OU both cancelled series with us. We had series with Texas and Beat the stuffing out of them. Something Bama has NEVER done. For the Record, The FSU series back in 1998 was for 6 games. Heard CTB tell us about it back in an Alumni meeting. We cancelled one game, FSU cancelled the rest. Also we have a winning record with FSU. When Dye got to He played against more Top Ten Teams in three years than Bama had played in Ten including bowl games!

Sorry cornholio, it's too late for you. Your "argument" above is weak and laughable. When even the other Bama fans here cut and run from your idiocy you should have the sense to catch the vibe. You're nothing but a poser. I'm not going to spend the time it would take explaining to you just how ignorant and misguided (not to mention stupid) your post above makes you sound. Instead, I'll just try to help you out on a broader scale. Here's a couple of suggestions for you if you want to survive in the world: 1) Take the rolled up pennies from under the kitchen cabinet. Go to Dollar General and buy a dictionary. Look up the word football. Have your mother or grandmother read the definition to you. Then have them read it to you again to make sure you understand. 2) Shut up for a minute and pay attention to how the other posters on this board -- even the Alabama supporters -- interact with each other. Then try to adapt. If you're incapable of that find something else to do. 3) Before you post again at least make an attempt to know what you're talking about. If nothing else, use Google. If you need a link, let somebody know. 3) Don't forget your appointment at the orthodontist to get your braces tightened next week. 4) Get permission from your mom before you get on the computer again 5) Wearing Member's Only jackets ceased being cool in the 80s. So did mullets. 6) Let us know when you're having your 16th birthday party in a couple of years. Maybe some of us will send presents. 7) Grow up. Note: Items 3-7 admittedly violate the spirit of suggestion #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nay4AU 2 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 First of all WKU and the Citadel were late additions due to cancellations. Second of all, at least Auburn actually wins their cream puff games. 1997 La. Tech - 29 Alabama - 20 1999 La. Tech - 29 Alabama - 28 2000 UCF - 40 Alabama - 38 2003 N.
