  • This is a 10-year anniversary dedication to the legendary Jim Fyffe, voice of the Auburn Tigers from 1981-2002, who unexpectedly passed away far too soon on May 15th, 2003. He was and still is widely regarded as one of the better College radio announcers of all-time.
    The order chosen certainly won't suit everyone and am certain there are many favorite calls that just missed the list. There are certainly bigger wins that didn't make the list or weren't ranked higher, but this was more about Jim than just Auburn. With literally hundreds of calls to choose from, the calls chosen and order they were placed in were based on three main factors, the quality of -- or building a crescendo which Jim was so good at, painting a picture of the play for his audience -- which he was a master of, and excitement level and dramatics of Jim's calls, not necessarily the bigger the games. However, the bigger the stakes for Auburn and the more dramatic the win, the more Jim rose to the occasion. I hope you'll enjoy this as much as I enjoyed putting it together.
    War Eagle Jim! We miss you. Our time's up, we thank you for your's.

    Jim Fyffe was such a fixture from my childhood in the 80’s and early 90’s. During a time when not every game was televised like today I would spend so many Saturdays looking forward to him calling the games on radio. My favorite Auburn players from childhood (sans Bo obviously) was Lawyer Tillman and Frank Sanders. I spent so many hours in my backyard pretending to be those two guys.

    I will never forget 1994 LSU. I think those were the most exciting calls from Fyffe because it was the most improbable set of events I've ever seen (next to Kick-six) in a football game. AU was getting thrashed and then they get 3 INT's for TD's. Even the TV announcers were going crazy.

    At 20:26 - My most memoriable sports radio ever. October 17, 1987 game at Georgia Tech. "OH MY TOUCHDOWN AUBURN! TOUCHDOWN AUBURN! TOUCHDOWN AUBURN! TILLMAN, TILLMAN, TILLMAN..." How I danced in the exitement of it! Some critized Fyffe for the call, but for me, the best sports moment ever. Pure excitement.

    I always hated hearing Jim Fayffe's voice scream "Touchdown Auburn"... but I'm a Bama fan so I'm sure that should speak highly of him here! I stumbled across this video and thought I would pay respect in the best most fitting way I can think of. Your Jim and our Eli are more than just sports casters, we welcome them into our home as fellow fans and their enthusiasm adds layer upon layer of excitement to the games. They are part of the mythology. Outstanding video! rtr & wde
