By Any Rational Measure, FSU Is The Better Team. So What?
College bowl games are far too fleeting and superfluous to serve as the basis for any lasting conclusions, even about the teams playing in them. In fact, if the 2013-14 bowl season has taught us anything–and I'd really prefer that it hasn't, but if it has, in spite of itself–it is that attempting to...

Here's The Taunting Penalty That Almost Cost FSU The BCS Championship
It's a moot point now, but following a late touchdown drive, Florida State was robbed of the opportunity to tie the game late because of a stupid taunting penalty. Davonta Freeman was penalized 15 yards after a touchdown cut the Tigers lead to 21-19 for taunting the Auburn sideline from midfield. Th...

This is absolutely adorable. Auburn coach Rhett Lashlee returned home and was immediately put to work by his kids, who made him play a game of Toss The Kids. ...

Angry Alabama Fan Drops The Best Burn On Colin Cowherd
Paul Finebaum welcomed ESPN radio personality and rat-faced gasbag Colin Cowherd onto his radio show yesterday, and the two did some chatting about Auburn's stunning win over Alabama in the Iron Bowl. Cowherd apparently had some not-nice things to say about Alabama during his segment. Big mistake, C...

Poor Mark Ingram Had To Wear Auburn Gear Yesterday
Saints running back Mark Ingram played college ball at Alabama, a team which you may remember losing the Iron Bowl in spectacular fashion to Auburn last week. It looks like Ingram made some kind of bet on the game with one of his teammates, because he showed up to practice yesterday decked out in Au...

Auburn's Field Goal Return Was Even Rarer Than You Think
The insane ending to last week's Iron Bowl had sports fans wondering if any college football game had ever ended in such an improbable fashion. NCAA records show that even in the missed-field-goal-returned-for-touchdown department, Chris Davis's score was especially rare....

The Dumb Iron Bowl Question You Were Afraid To Ask
I watched the Iron Bowl on Saturday and after basking in the glorious HOLYSHIT-ness of it all, I wondered what would happen if you returned a field goal in the middle of a game but failed to bring it all the way to the house. Do you get the ball at the spot you returned it? Or does the ball automa...

If you happen to find out who this jerk-ass non-tipper is, you are hereby ordered to yell "U Mad?????" right in his face, many times over....

Where Does Verne Lundquist Rank The Iron Bowl All-Time?
Uncle Verne was cagey about this one. He's seen a lot of sports history—more than 50 years of it—and he was understandably wary about trying to contextualize an amazing Alabama-Auburn game just two days later. But Newsday's Neil Best tried to pin him down: what's the greatest sporting event he's eve...

50 Years Of NCAA Football Realignment, Visualized
This Saturday's SEC championship game comes freighted with the awkwardness of college football realignment. Missouri, representing the "SEC East," will take on Auburn, representing the "SEC West," even though the latter lies a couple hundred miles closer to the Atlantic Ocean. Wacky!...

We saw Charles Barkley the day before the Iron Bowl. Now, we can see what he did after Auburn pulled off the upset. The Tigers alumnus enjoyed himself and celebrated with fans, paying for drinks and cracking jokes....

We've already shared with you Ohio State fan reactions to the wild play that ended this year's Iron Bowl, but how did ESPN's college football studio team of Rece Davis, Mark May, and Lou Holtz respond to the improbable ending? Fortunately, the WWL was live with a three-shot at that moment, so we ca...

Alabama's Kicker Should Stay Off Of Twitter For A While
Alabama placekicker Cade Foster missed all three of his field goal attempts in last night's 34-28 loss to Auburn. Because of his bad night, Nick Saban brought in backup Adam Griffith, whose one and only miss was returned by Chris Davis for the game-winning touchdown. Some Crimson Tide fans found Fo...

Ohio State Reacts To Auburn Upset Over Alabama
Whether Ohio State will actually get to, or deserves to play in, the BCS Championship is a debate we only have to endure for a few more months. Nevertheless, OSU is undefeated and Alabama no longer is. The Buckeyes are in a better position than they were when they barely survived Michigan and they'r...

Hear The Auburn And Alabama Radio Calls From The Missed-FG Runback
This is the incredulously jubilant call from the Auburn booth. Rod Bramblett stars again this week with a guttural "They're not gonna keep them off the field tonight."...

The Game-Tying And Game-Winning Auburn Touchdowns In A Wild Iron Bowl
Auburn began the drive on its own 35 with 2:15 left in the game, down seven. Six consecutive rushes from Tre Mason later and the Tigers were Alabama 39 with 32 seconds left. On first down, Nick Marshall looked to pass it to Mason for a seventh consecutive time but tucked it back inside, rolled to ...
