I don't know how kosher it is to post rumors on fan posts, but this is a pretty funny one. There is an airticle from WTVM in Auburn that has quotes from Herbstreit and Fowler about the "family" at auburn and how they were "debating last night between Auburn and Athens and some of the other sec towns and from an ESPN perspective I gotta tell you Auburn has the edge over the other towns". Is this real or just a fabrication of the Auburn PR department? Im thinking the latter...
Here is the link to the article
Another rumor is that Auburn paid for half the production costs to have Gameday in Auburn, and ESPN has heard about this article and is pretty pissed that auburn published articles like this using faux quotes from some of their personalities. They took out most of the Auburn spots, and its kinda obvious if youre watching gameday. They also said they wont be going back to the plains next year and possibly more. TIFWIW.
