No work for me today. So i'm gonna get out my tape of the '96 Iron Bowl, burn it to DVD and watch it.

Anyone want to join?

I'll join you for the 1st quarter, skip the 2nd and 3rd, and come back for the 4th...in fact, only the last 2½ minutes.

There is another similarity as well. Auburn had a strong defense but very little offense. It ended there though. Pat Dye always had teams that played smash mouth football. No fancy spread for him.

That game literally almost ended my marriage. I learned a valuable lesson that night about life, football and marriage.

Never go to a game with a rival; never leave early; never try to go back into a stadium with your rival when you've pulled him away and said "let's go" before your team started their game-winning drive. Oh, and never try to then stay and celebrate with everyone else (who are total strangers yet you're all hugging and jumping up and down with each other) while your rival proclaims he's pulling out with or without you (at Legion Field!! :shock: ).

The Iron Bowl of my senior year. What a nice way to go out. And if you knew that team, a 4th quarter drive for the winning touchdown as the clock ran out was something you would have to see to belive. It was like, "did we just see that happen"? And my friends laughed when I left from our tailgate early to get really nice seats in the student section.....idiots.

I have mixed memories of that game. I was overwhelmed with joy about the win and then I get out to the car to leave and I hear Coach Stallings say his goodbyes to the media. Having played for the man, I felt like my dad had died. I was crushed. I then went to the SECCG and then to the Outback Bowl to see him prowl the sidelines those last 2 games.
