Any of them not coached by Dubose or Shula

72
The kick six is still burned in my brain though. My friend got married that day and remember little of the wedding and less of the reception.
Ivars went fricking nuts when Davis ran that ball back though. Spilled a double charter and coke. And by spilled I mean I threw it in the air.

Either PBP or Cam, because of the low odds of winning those games at those points (before the 1st Bama punt and during the Ingram run where he fumbled through the endzone).
The Kick Six was insane but by the time it happened Auburn was already the most likely winner of the game. If the Kick Six doesn't happen we go to OT, and Auburn had the clear advantage there. Auburn had less of a chance to win that game when Alabama had the ball inside their 20 with a chance to take a 2 score lead with less than 5 minutes to play. That was where Auburn won the game (and Alabama lost it).

1972 by a decent margin over the other two
2013 I know everyone thought Alabama was going to win before the game, but the two teams seemed pretty evenly matched and Auburn had all of the momentum at home even if the game did go to OT, so it’s fair to say they easily could have won without the Kick Six.
2010 seemed gloomy but with Cam running the offense you just never felt like they were totally out of it.

The "Amazings" for the win. We couldn't have scored an offensive touchdown against that bammer D if we had 6 more quarters to do it.

PBP, easily

Well, considering Auburn was national title-level good in 2010 and 2013 (National Championship and National Championship runner-up, respectively), the obvious answer is 1972. Still 10-1, but getting obliterated by LSU meant that Auburn was still outside the top 5.
Even so, none were "bad" or even "mediocre" Auburn teams. All 3 games were winnable before the kick off for Auburn.

Nobody gets outplayed all game and wins like auburn. It’s sickening

I didn't know about the 1972 game, but from your description, it has to be that one. Bama up 3 scores and undoubtedly Auburn's offense hadn't threatened at all for the first 50 minutes.

Last season simply bc you had a true freshman QB who had been pretty ineffective and Bama offense was still rolling with Mac Jones

In that order. I remember watching the first half of 2010 yelling outloud "SO THIS IS HOW THE SEASON WILL END. OF COURSE"
Then magic happened.

Being at the 2013 it was baffling D.Nussmeier didn't call more deep passes other than the 4th quarter 99 yarder to Cooper.
It was there the whole time.
2014 L.Kiffin called it quiet often. Cooper had like 14 receptions, 3TD's/Over200yards.

1972 and 2013 beat all I have ever seen. ‘72 was lightening striking twice in the same place.

2010 trumps 2013 imo
They were in Tuscaloosa and spotted them a 24-point first half lead. Just getting absolutely clobbered. Then Cam Newton, again, took it to another level.
2013 was an unbelievable game, and that Bama team was better than 2010's. But it was in Jordan-Hare and it's not like Auburn had some no-name team and no-name QB. Plus they were never not in the game.
Pretty astounding that the loser of each of those games was the defending national champion and the winner of each subsequently played in the national championship game of that respective season. Really cool rivalry history moment.
