Besides being a very Republican school (elephant, red…well, crimson) (I’m joking, before anyone takes that too seriously), both “Crimson Tide” and “Elephants” are basically results of the media and random things people mentioned that stuck.

As for the rivalry…um, Alabama and Auburn are the two biggest universities in Alabama…everyone in Alabama goes for one of the two teams because nearly every family in the state is associated with one of the universities…it’s lots of fun?

Now, try to figure this one out (it’s not hard): 1. medieval Scottish yell that scared off intruders >>> 2. Scottish immigration to the South >>> 3. Civil War rebel yell >>> 4. Noises made during the Auburn-Alabama game.

Just in case you’re on Jeopardy or something someday.
