Alabama-Auburn rivalry now extends to fundraising
It is no secret that Alabama and Auburn are mortal enemies, and the rivalry will continue next week at the NFL Scouting Combine. That’s where Alabama center Ryan Kelly and Auburn offensive tackle Shon Coleman will square off to see who can put up the better numbers in the bench press.But this isn’t some silly “I’m stronger than he is” thing. Instead, AL.com reports that the players are competing to see who can raise the most money for the Eagle Fund, a charity that supports active duty special forces military members who have been injured in action. Fans can click here to go to the website to pledge money for the charity.
