And the jackleg that wrote it is no Aubie. He is a basketball yankee that somehow got a column in our local fishwrapper.

Newspapers in Alabama are jokes for the most part. The Mobile Register is my personal favorite for state sports, but they don't give me the local stuff for Birmingham.

Off topic somewhat but the Mobile Register is a joke. My parents live in Daphne and I read it when i visit. If it didn't happen in Auburn or Tuscaloosa it didn't happen. During Football season the "other" SEC games get about a qtr of a page total, if that. There Sunday sports page is about the 1/2 the size of the BR Advocate Sunday Comics. And that "Sound Off" is nothing more than a redneck version of a message board.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Their eardrums were still clogged after four hours in Tiger Stadium, and Auburn players admitted after Saturday night's 20-17 loss to LSU that the crowd noise seriously affected their offense.

Auburn had to waste time outs and took at least one delay of game penalty because the noise made changing plays at the line of scrimmage so difficult.

The attendance was announced as a sta dium-record 92,664 fans.

"It was a loud crowd, and we couldn't hear out there," Auburn quarterback Brandon Cox said.

Running back Kenny Irons also said the noise affected the team's concentration.

"The crowd noise affected us," Irons said. "We fought. Everybody fought. It's just hard to put it in when they have a great defense."

I'm sure this guy will get a few friendly emails reminding him of his remarks.

Tiger Stadium has hosted only five overtimes in its history and two of them have occurred this year.

LSU defeated Tennessee 30-27 in overtime on Sept. 26 and has a 4-2 all-time overtime record.

That's news to me.

LSU `tradition' little more than hooliganism

Condoleezza Rice is headed in the wrong direction.

If the secretary of state wants to go to a game, and she cares about homeland security, she should skip Tuscaloosa and jet straight to Baton Rouge.

If there's a game in need of a high-ranking diplomat to help keep the peace, it's Auburn-LSU.

Consider Auburn's experience on its recent trips to Death Valley. The team bus has been rocked. The head coach's family has been taunted.

To say nothing of the rude manner in which the home team has treated the visitors on the field.

It all adds to the urban legend of Tiger Stadium as one of college football's toughest places to play.

Urban Meyer might believe it - his first trip there with Florida last week reduced him to tears - but it's really an urban myth.

Consider some recent scores that were settled in Tiger Stadium: Auburn 41, LSU 7. Alabama 31, LSU 0. UAB 13, LSU 10.

Three of this state's four Division I-A programs have let the good times roll there since 1999. Troy was a play away last year from making it four of four.

That near-miss, like the UAB upset in 2000 and the Alabama shutout in 2002, happened on Nick Saban's watch.
