    Yep. Those are some real bangup guys they have down in Auburn. Perhaps some of the herbicide got into the water supply.

    I hate being the target so early...but if you start at the top the only way to fall down is on you.

    I know what you are saying. However, it is way easier to stay up high, than to climb from down low. The press usually starts us low if they can. I KNOW this is not a definitive poll and it is WAY early. That's what made it fun - some way early props that in the end just help to plant a seed of possible good things to come.

    Great that we're number 1, but I take offense to being called the "other" Tigers. We've got to right that real quick. I get that this is Auburn's moment in the sun (only took them 60 years) but we need to restore things to their natural order.

    Auburn wants to call themselves the tigers but they won't pony up the bucks to have a real tiger. Lsu has a real 10' long Bengal tiger and auburn has a bird. They don't even have a great American bald eagle they went second best on that with a golden eagle. Auburn can't figure out what they want to be a tiger or a bird. Sort of reminds me of a dude in a dress.

    There are 45 different college teams that are called the Tigers.

    There are currently 6 subspecies of Tigers around the world.

    Siberian
    Bengal
    Indochinese
    Malayan
    South China
    Sumatran

    Perhaps being more specific would help.
