One of the inaugural members of the SEC, the Auburn Tigers have long had a proud tradition of football. Founded in 1892, the Tigers have had plenty of history that dates back well over a century.
They meet every bit of the criteria for being a top “blue blood” in college football. They have a long history of success, they have the national championships, awards and of course, their rivalry with Alabama.
The Iron Bowl is without a doubt the best rivalry in college football. Whether it’s at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn or Bryant-Denny in Tuscaloosa, this is the game that everyone makes sure not to miss.
It’s a game that has often carried SEC Championship and National Championship implications with it. Some of the best moments in the history of the sport have occurred here and caused Auburn to become the proud program that it is.
In recent memory, the kick-six ended up being one of the craziest moments in sports that shocked the world and the Crimson Tide. Names like Bo Jackson, Cam Newton, Pat Sullivan and countless others helped shape the program into what it has become today.
