That's not the Gump, that's P-vegas!

I can't believe Stanley Jensen is considered worthy of housing a "professional" game.

Granted, I haven't seen it in a while, but I doubt there's been that many renovations. Why not do it in Crampton Bowl or any other stadium in Montgomery that is better suited for this type of thing?

Love the name.  What a way to honor the memory of the massive herds of buffalo that used to roam the wild plains of Montgomery...

WTF?

Cramton Bowl is a big-time dump now...the stadium in Prattville has got to be nicer and smaller.  These folks aren't going to be playing in front of 20K+ crowds, either.

Buffaloes may be ill-fitting geographically (I don't imagine there were too many tigers roaming the Piedmont back in the day, either, but I digress) is one hell of a lot better than these WNBA-esque beauts:

Georgia Pride
Tennessee Crush
Georgia Xtreme

Lots of Georgia ____________ teams...guess they went to the Foreman school of name selection.

If you were referring to my high school, then you should be aware that Piedmont's mascot is a Bulldog, not a tiger.  If you are referring to the Piedmont as a geographical term, then i have no idea why Clemson decided on a tiger.

As much as I hate to correct you (I lie, I love it), Auburn is located in what is known as the Piedmont Plateau, one of the major geographical/geological features of the eastern United States. 

Read a book sometime.

TW, I was not referring to your HS because I had no earthly idea where you attended (I guess I do now)...I don't know any of you.  As Pale explained, it was a nod to Auburn's relative geographical location.

Anyway, Montgomery's team doesn't appear to completely suck at 4-2.
