Arial was an All-Southern end for the Auburn Tigers of Auburn University.[1][2][3] He was a teammate of College Football Hall of Fame inductee Jimmy Hitchcock. One source writes "Other than Jimmy Hitchcock, back, and "Gump" Arial, end, Auburn has no outstanding players."[4] He was selected All-American by the "captain's poll," selected by the captains of major college football programs.[5][6]
