Alabama will always be the bigger name but I really don't think there's a huge difference in amount of fans, its probably 55-45 in Bama's favor, something like that. Alabama probably pulls more casual fans. It also depends on where you are, there are parts of the state that are more pro-Auburn and vice versa. I don't know how it is in Texas, I assume it goes Texas-Texas A&M-Texas Tech-TCU-Baylor-Houston, something like that?

I was a bit surprised by Franchione's lack of success at Texas A&M. Alabama fans were mad at him for how he handled the whole thing (IMO worse than anything Saban did but Saban's a dick to the media and this in the end is the most important thing) but at the same time we were mad it was kind of cause we all thought he was a good coach.
