Auburn Blacked Out!
By 1340, the Black Death had descended over Europe, wiping out 60 percent of its population - 50 million people. By the 4th quarter of the 111th edition of the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry, Georgia players, dressed in black jerseys for the first time ever in the modern era of the rivalry, were dancing on the sidelines to rapper Soulja Boy's "Crank It" blacking out Auburn, 45-20. By comparison to the Black Death's effects on Europe, Auburn got off easy!

From ESPN...Georgia's new star brings back memories for team he'll face Saturday
Dated November 2, 2007
ATHENS, Ga. -- When the Auburn coaches watch film on Knowshon Moreno, it all looks very familiar, like someone who used to carry the ball for the Tigers.The shifty feet. The speed to the corners. The surprising power on the inside.
Even the number -- 24, the same one worn by former Auburn star Carnell "Cadillac" Williams.

The Deep South's Oldest Rivalry
Auburn and Georgia have met 111 times, as of 2007, in what is known as 'the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry' in the sport of college football. The Auburn-Georgia rivalry is unlike the annual contest between Auburn and Alabama; It is a true competitive interstate civil war, brother vs. brother. Where as the Iron Bowl is about setting an annual family dispute. Of Auburn's major rivals whose games were once played at neutral sites, Georgia is the ONLY school to come to Auburn without argument. In fact, both Auburn and Georgia used a home-to-home Auburn-Georgia series as the base for a major stadium additions. The rivalry is tied with Oregon-Oregon State as the seventh-most played series in the nation.
