I'd just like to know where you pulled the extra 100k worth of people to make up the Columbus GA CSA's population other than straight out of your ass.
Within a 30 mile radius of Columbus. I live here so I should know. How about you chill out for a minute

# You are not hunting real ducks. They are football players whose mascot is a duck. Refer to the rule above.

# When asked where you are from, do not reply, "LA."(Lower Alabama)

# If you go sightseeing at the Grand Canyon, do not test the air brakes on your truck by driving off a cliff.

# When discussing the stock market, do not refer to the place where cows are sold.

# If you go to the Glendale Aquarium, do not bring a cane pole or trot line.

If anybody has any Eugene jokes, feel free to add.

People are so bias and ignrorant the majority went for Eugene because there is some sort of media ignorance toward Alabama.Eugene is not on the same level as Auburn in any metric !

This.....


These teams won't be back to the national championship in our lifetime so they better enjoy it. We (Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas, USC, Ohio State etc.) are the blue bloods of the sport....I guess we have to give the little guys a chance every few 100 years. Roll Tide and we will be back very soon. Go Ducks!!!!!!!

I didn't realize that Auburn was an Ag university. That makes me like Auburn more. As a Michigan State fan, I like to root for the other ag universities.

That being said, I can't root for Cam Newton. So... Go Ducks!

LOL....congrats on your second National Championship in the last 100 year of football. (1957 and 2010)


How many does the University of Alabama have again in the same time period? You better enjoy this championship because you won't see one again in your lifetime.

Roll Tide!!!
