The 5-4-1 Auburn Tigers faced the 10-0, #2 Alabama Crimson Tide at Legion Field in Birmingham, AL. This was Pat Dye's final game as head coach of Auburn.
One of only 2 Iron Bowls on Thanksgiving Day (the other was in 1964). They have played a handful of times on Black Friday but it's strange to see them playing on Turkey Day instead of the following day.
This will the LAST TIME Alabama will win a National Title under Gene Stallings in the last decade of the Century of the 90's until THE DARK AGE of Football arrived in 1997.
Now another dark period for bama is arriving and I think it will last longer than the last one did. There’s not another Nick Saban out there in the football world right now. It will be at least another 40+ years before another saban is around.

This one was played on Thanksgiving Day, November 26, 1992, enroute to the 12th national championship with Gene Stallings.
I miss seeing Alabama play at Legion Field
during sept games the heat would reflect off the artificial turf at legion field & was like an oven
This popped up in my feed today. Prayers are with Coach Dye as he is hospitalized with COVID-19.

1987, 1988 and 2010 were also Black Friday...
Barker was Auburn's best quarterback that game.
I was there as a 9 year old boy. I remember singing hey hey hey good bye dye at the end, even tho coach Dye was a good dude.
Dye really was
Pat dye was a good man

Thanksgiving day and I had the flu.
Struck by how absolutely horrible Stan White was a QB. Amazingly, he's even worse as an announcer. Was he ever good at ANYTHING?
Jay barker was equally as bad.
