In Alabama, they take football very seriously, and the Auburn Tigers are at the heart of what Alabama football is all about. Veteran sports writer Phillip Marshall delivers a dozen of his favorite remembrances of Auburn's colorful gridiron legacy. Included are a look back at the 1892 game against Georgia that got the Auburn program going; a chronicling of the construction and evolution of Jordan-Hare Stadium; a look at Auburn's two Heisman Trophy winners (Pat Sullivan and Bo Jackson); and several wonderful stories on the intense intrastate rivalry between the Tigers and the Crimson Tide of the University of Alabama.
