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...

Appalachian State's New Logo Might Have Been Drawn By A Child
At gunpoint, I'd say the guy on the left was a sea captain, or maybe the Gorton's Fisherman. With Appalachian State moving up to the FBS next season, they needed something a little more evocative of "mountaineer." So they're switching to the guy on the right, presumably after an intense design compe...

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...

Saturday's Iron Bowl Gets The Wacko Taiwanese Animation Treatment
The Taiwanese studio Next Media Animation, which will animate pretty much anything nowadays, have offered their calculatingly bizarre take on this weekend's Auburn-Alabama rivalry game. Come for the players attacking a giant panda, stay for the Toomer's Corner oaks being destroyed (again) by urine a...
