It is not the Rebel critic who counts; not the Auburn douche in a bar who points out how the strong Bulldog stumbles, or where the Bulldog doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to Dak, JRob, and Bear, who are actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again in the SEC, because there is no effort without the Croom error and shortcoming; but Mullen, who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great Maroon devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement in the Egg Bowl, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid Rebel souls who neither know victory nor defeat.,,Teddy Roosevelt
