Yeah, Georgia and Auburn has become more of a \"friendly\" traditional rivalry over the years, partially because of the talent exchange (We got Vince Dooley, they got Pat Dye and Will Muschamp, etc).
Here's the thing with Auburn...I respect them. I want to beat them every year, but in 2004 when they embarrassed us 24-6 in a year when we were projected to play for the NC, I thought, \"No, Auburn is a far better team than we are.\" Doesn't mean I root for them, but against Tennessee, Florida, their own rivalry with Tech, Nick Satan, or any team from the Big 2 + 9, I pull for them to win. I don't think Auburn hates us, either, anymore...they're too focused on 'Bama and LSU.
That said..we need to win more games in this rivalry, since Auburn has the all-time edge.
My son will sometimes randomly spout out \"Boo Gators!\" when he sees an alligator drawing. He has an alligator bath toy, and so at bathtime I've taught him to grab the toy, yell \"Boo Gators\" at it, and then throw it as hard as he can at the wall. That's satisfying.
Red and Black, Win or Lose
