he honestly said...."this is for all the tostitos"......can you believe he said something so corny?

Musberger needs a big smack in the mouth.

As early as 1916, the Columbus (Ga.) Daily Enquirer mentioned "War Eagle" as an Auburn Tigers battle cry.[1] In the 19th and early 20th centuries, "War Eagle" appeared from time to time in the United States as a name for people and things such as Indians (including professional wrestlers), race horses, and in one case a coal mine interest.

There are several stories about the origin of the battle cry. One of these is a mythical story published in 1960 in the Auburn Plainsman and conceived by then-editor Jim Phillips. This myth is detailed below under War Eagle I.

A 1914 football contest with the Carlisle Indians provides another myth. According to the story on the Indians' team was a tackle named Bald Eagle. Trying to tire the player, Auburn began to run multiple plays at his position. Without even huddling, the Auburn quarterback would yell "Bald Eagle," letting the rest of the team know that the play would be run at the tackle. Spectators, however, thought the quarterback was saying "War Eagle," and began to chant the cry.

Another legend says "War Eagle" was the name given to the large golden eagle by the Plains Indians because the eagle furnished feathers for use in their war bonnets.

According to a 1998 article in the Auburn Plainsman [2], the most likely origin of the "War Eagle" cry grew from a 1913 pep rally at Langdon Hall where students had gathered the day before the Georgia football game. Cheerleader Gus Graydon told the crowd, "If we are going to win this game, we'll have to get out there and fight, because this means war." During the frenzy, another student, E. T. Enslen, dressed in his military uniform, noticed something had dropped from his hat. Bending down, he saw it was the metal emblem of an eagle that had been loosened while he cheered. Someone asked him what he had found, and Enslen loudly replied, "It's a War Eagle!" The new cry was used by students at the game the following day.

LaMichael James and Oregon shouldn't feel too bad, Cam Newton and Auburn will have to give back the Heisman and National Championship trophies soon enough.

They have an eagle that soars from the top of the stadium down to the 50 or something during the anthem at home games. Much like the bald eagle did tonight. It's just some tradition that they do.

Tigers gave more information. I'm pretty sure they do this as well though.

Very well than, how bout the illegal participation?
There were several coaches and players on the field about 20 yards away from the play that was noticeable in the background of the last replay shown.

Auburn Dline and Oline dominated the 2nd half.
Until a team gets a better dline from outside the SEC, they will keep winning titles.


But, as my buddy said, hey in a few years in won't matter.

This.

And this.

They just showed Toomer's Corner in Auburn. Looks like New Orleans durning Mardi Gras.

2nd title in a row for the state of Alabama. Kind of an unlikely state to see dominating the college football landscape.
