The best Auburn tickets to purchase are the tickets to any Auburn/Alabama games. Auburn's first game against Alabama was played on February 22, 1893, in front of about 450 spectators at Birmingham's Lakeview Baseball Park. This game set the stage for one of the most intense football rivalries in the realm of college football. The rivalry has lasted over a hundred years and acts as a great divider of the state's football fans. This clash has become known as the Iron Bowl, and it can make or break friendships and business deals alike. The Crimson Tide holds the all-time advantage in this conflict at 35-25-1. Auburn dominated from the start, but the Crimson Tide took over the lead in the 1970s. Even the fact that, after 1907, the two schools did not play against each other for forty years did nothing to dampen the rivalry. Auburn's first actual game was played on February 20, 1892 against the University of Georgia. They played in Atlanta's Piedmont Park, touching off another great rivalry. The Auburn Tigers have won one national championship, in 1957. They have appeared in seventeen bowl games and have won six SEC titles. Since 1980, the Tigers have averaged eight wins per season. Auburn has sent 198 players to the NFL and added two Heisman Trophy winners--Bo Jackson in 1985 and Pat Sullivan in 1971. Recently, both Auburn and Alabama have been doing well. They have both played in SEC championship games since 1997. Both teams have gone through coaching changes. Tommy Tuberville has recently led the Auburn Tigers to victory in 2002, 2003, and 2004. Auburn tickets can get you in on the excitement and great rivalries that are such a part of Auburn tradition and NCAA football. See More Auburn Tickets at Stubhub! |
