They beat Auburn.

As disappointing as this team has been at times this year, I can put some respect on that.

A good season starts with beating Auburn.

We've won SEC Titles and Natties without beating them...but they aren't as sweet as when we do.

Roll Tide.

3 in a row. Maybe they can make it 4 next year.

Would love to see a streak get going. That's the one thing the Saban era has missed.

We absolutely buried everyone else in the SEC. Except Auburn.

Oh to have a streak over Auburn like we had over LSU, UT, Arkansas, etc.

Nah. I care more about beating Tennessee, winning the SEC, and playing for a national title.

I'm not saying 2017 wasn't sweet. I'm just saying a good season STARTS with beating Auburn.

That's the only year we lost to AU (Saban era) and went on to win a natty. The rest, we weren't in the SECCG or the Natty. If I'm remembering correctly.

Same. This is the 2nd 3 game win streak of the Saban era.

Nothing to match Tubberville's 6 in a row. That was brutal.

Could have potentially been 5 had Tua not been hurt in 2019.

Hell, Bama should have only one loss to Auburn since 08 and that's 2017.

Bama had no business losing the 2010, 2013 and 2019 Iron Bowls.

If Tua played more in the 17 Iron Bowl and Alabama could actually complete a forward pass, no telling what would have happened in the 2017 game.

Never will forget the 19 game because of Waddle. That kid played his arse off.

Probably my favorite highlight of any player to watch. Waddle was insane, probably my favorite Saban era player

We're now at +12 in the series, which I think is our largest lead ever if my math is right.

Devonta Smith ran away with that title for me.

Baw was critical in TWO titles. Owns all the stats. Heisman.

He's the GOAT.

He’s the goat for sure. Waddle just has that Tyreek Hill factor and I loved watching him burn dudes
