I am starting to see a pattern....
You are seeing the pattern because it is very much there.....

Also note that Auburn does not try to entice out of state students with merit money as much as Bama. I tend to think they attract high quality applicants because of the strength of certain programs.

The other poster who mentioned merit money and football being the main draw for Bama- maybe for some people. However, the dorms and other facilities are awesome and the large scholarships are definitely are draw- even if one is not a football fan.
