Actually, it's right in line with Bryant. Stallings was 5-2 which is pretty good all time. Auburn is always our toughest out. Always will be. 7-4 is pretty darn good considering how intense this game is. I still kind of blow off 2007 as that was kind of a feeling out year. 7-6 with that team was damn near as impressive as anything he's done.

2010 and 2013 were friggin miracles and last year u got a team missing 4 defensive and 2 offensive starters.

So 2007 auburn was just better
Other than that, the games you've won were pretty extreme circumstances whereas Bama has dominated in their wins. Yea, We good.

We've experienced enough success to give Auburn credit where it is due. Miracles aside, there is more to it than that. Auburn had very good teams in 2010 and 2013 and was on a roll this past season. They played in 2 national championships.

If Nick Saban had not agreed to come to Tuscaloosa, Auburn fans would view this as their golden decade.

Sorry but this simply is not True. Coach Bryant was 9-2 against Auburn in his first 11 games. 7-4 is not very good when the topic is Domination. From 1959-1962 Auburn didn't even score a single point in the Iron Bowl. Coach Saban only has two shutouts.

Coach Bryant absolutely dominated Auburn. It is why Auburn is still scared of him to this very day.
