Some numbers and facts for Iron Bowl week:

Saban is 6-6 against Auburn as head coach at LSU and Bama.

While at Bama, he is 4-3 after being 2-3 against AU at LSU.

Keep in mind that while at Bama, 2 of those 4 victories came against AU teams that finished with losing records including the worst season in AU football history.

Saban has coached against Auburn teams that would finish the season with nine or more wins six times.

He's lost all six of those games.

Saban (LSU) lost in 2000 to AU team that finished 9-4, in 2002 to another 9-4 team and in 2004 to Auburn's 13-0 SEC champs. At Alabama, Saban lost in 2007 to a 9-4 Auburn team and in 2010 to Auburn's 14-0 BCS champs. And then there was last year. In case you don't remember this is what happened.



Then THIS happend.





Alabama has lost the last 9 Iron Bowls to AU teams that would finish the season with nine or more wins: 2013, 2010, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2002, 2000 and 1997.

The last time Alabama won an Iron Bowl against an Auburn team headed toward nine or more wins was 1994. That was Terry Bowden's second season as head coach, and it was his first defeat on the Auburn sideline.

Auburn's won four of the last eight Iron Bowls against Alabama teams headed toward nine-plus victories. AU beat an 11-2 UA team in 2013, 10-3 UA team in 2010, an Alabama team headed toward 10-2 season in 2005 and an Alabama that finished 10-3 in 2002.

Auburn is 7-2 in Tuscaloosa....In both losses, Auburn had losing records and we got rocked.

LOSSES
2008 (0-36) Tubs last year (5-7)
2012 (0-49) Chiziks Last Year (3-9)

WINS
1895 (48-0)
1901 (17-0)
2000 (9-0) Ice Bowl, Dubose's Last Game
2002 (17-7) Bama finally scores, Tre Smith (Ronnie, Caddie, & FB Brandon Johnson, all injured). Bama was a heavy favorite. Franchiones Last Game
2004 (21-13) Undefeated Auburn
2006 (22-15) Shula's Last Game
2010 (28-27) Cam Back
2014 ?????????????

The 2000 "ice bowl" was a miserable game to be at.

The return was proving an Auburn team with nothing to play for won't beat Alabama.

All this tells me is that Auburn will lose their bowl game after getting beaten by Alabama so that you can post a similar thread next year.

WINS
1895 (48-0) (Terrible Bama team)
1901 (17-0)
2000 (9-0) Ice Bowl, Dubose's Last Game (Terrible Bama team)
2002 (17-7) Bama finally scores, Tre Smith (Ronnie, Caddie, & FB Brandon Johnson, all injured). Bama was a heavy favorite. Franchiones Last Game (Poorly prepared because Fran's mind was already in College Station)
2004 (21-13) Undefeated Auburn (Bad Bama team)
2006 (22-15) Shula's Last Game (Bad Bama team)
2010 (28-27) Cam Back

Looks like you've beaten a lot of Bama teams where the coach was about to get fired or was already mentally checked out.

I'd say 2010 was the first time you beat a good Bama team in Tuscaloosa.

Only beaten Saban there on the Cam-back. Auburn fans love to selectively lump in Shula stats.
