"Yet this picture of joyous revelry stands in almost total contrast to the perception of Auburn currently held by most outside of this secluded southern campus. From the incredulous fans of a certain school across the state to dismissive skeptics around the rest of the SEC to jaded college football fans in general -- the ones that comment on their favorite blogs or dole out snarky jabs on Twitter -- Auburn is not being viewed as the king of college football. It's become the sport's black hat."

And...

"Case in point: When I tweeted from the press box Saturday about the National Champions logo at midfield, the very first response was: "does that painting have $$$ signs anywhere in it?," followed shortly thereafter by "awesome -- they should enjoy it for while before it is vacated."

One more teaser...

"However in Auburn's case, cynicism far outweighs admiration. Many are waiting for the purportedly inevitable day when the Tigers have to give back their trophy. Short of that, they figure the departure of one-year sensations Newton and Nick Fairley will soon ensure Auburn's return to irrelevance."

It is killing the barn fans that they are getting no respect nationwide - and they are blaming it all on us.

I found this funny!

"Coach Chizik runs as clean a program as anybody in the country. But we do realize when you're at the top, people are going to come after you -- especially if you haven't been there in a while and you're not one of those programs people expect to be there year-in, year-out."

I liked this quote:

More than three months have passed since Tigers coach Gene Chizik hoisted the crystal trophy that night in Glendale, Ariz., but the glow has yet to dim here at Auburn, where moments like these only come around once every 53 years.
