Iron Bowl 1955 - Limited Edition Print

Auburn 26 | Alabama 0

“For Auburn this is a blue-stakes affair.  There‘s a bowl bid to gain, a SEC championship to win if Mississippi State can handle Ole Miss…For winless Alabama there‘s only honor in it and one of the upsets of the year...There are many reasons Auburn is the fat, three-touchdown choice.  The Tigers have hinted at times they could be a great club.  They can pass, run, block and tackle.” —Alf Van Hoose, The Birmingham News

With Howell Tubbs, the most accurate passer in the league, and the running threesome Fob James, Bobby Hoppe and Joe Childress, the Tigers did it - another shut out against the Crimson Tide.

From the 3-yard line Joe Childress (#35) gets the ball, catching blocks from teammates Frank D’Agostino (#77) and Fob James (#23), and takes it into Alabama’s end zone for six.
