You do know the reason for the hiatus right?

Also, the fact it was a bama home game for the next 50 years skews the numbers a bit as well so it all evens out.


Why didn't Auburn do anything to try and restore competitive balance?

Auburn is Alabama's "lil bro" because they have a worse football program. How is this even a debate? /thread

The "little brother" thing is more a of cultural or social jab at Auburn.

You have the flagship professional school versus the "cow college". While oversimplifying greatly, Alabama is historically the white collar/professional school for the state. It's the same thing you see with Michigan-MSU, Texas-Texas A&M, UVA-VaTech, Ole Miss- MS State, UNC-NC State.

They didn't have anybody with the stones to take on the empire until CPD came to town. Shug was a great man but was too nice.
