Iāve said this before but itās kinda cool how the rivalry is so intense but thereās really never any on field issues at all between the teams. Not any more than most normal games for sure. You look at the Egg Bowl and thereās a fight every year. UM and Ohio State, usually some sort of altercation. And while the fans around here certainly do their part to keep things uncivil with each other, I do kinda appreciate that the players donāt act like idiots on the field.
That said, I enjoy it when the Egg Bowl breaks out into a Royal Rumble. So Iām dipping on both sides here, but the overall class that Alabama and auburn compete with, and have been over time in most instances, is refreshing.
