Why lie?
Granted, I just used decades in Stassen - 2000, 1990, 1980, 1970, etc... and didn't find a single one when Auburn led the series.
Instead of calling me a liar, why don't you just bring the facts? When did Auburn lead the series?

WTF?
10+ SEC titles? They have 7 in football. A handful of national titles? If you have a very small hand that can only handle two.
I've never understood where Auburn's arrogance comes from, by no metric can they claim they are better than LSU.
Although you only give LSU credit for "SEC titles", LSU actually has 10+. As far as Tiger Stadium, it was usually the largest stadium in the conference up until the early 70's. The stadium those years when TS didn't lead? Tulane Stadium. That's why LSU has played so many games in TS, it was the biggest and teams could make money there. One of the GREATEST traditions in the SEC is football on a Saturday night in Tiger Stadium - and has been since the 30s.
In 1991 LSU had winning records vs all SEC teams except Tennessee and Alabama, but also including Arkansas and S. Carolina. Since then UF has taken the series lead, and Missouri leads the series 1-0. LSU also leads the series against A&M.
A&M gets disqualified from tradition consideration because they are guilty of 'tradition inflation'. Every stupid thing they can think of, or that their stupid dog can think of, becomes a tradition. This comes from trying to distract people from their tradition of losing to Texas.

You're a Tennessee fan, and you have Florida and LSU over Tennessee? We are talking about tradition man, not who is relevant today. Ole Miss should replace A&M, a one year team does not come to mind when I think of SEC tradition.

No, in those three posts of mine "hate" was used properly, in its correct context. Therefore, there is no pussification assumed.
Example 1 - was used to illustrate a specific case in point as posted by a single Bama fan.
Example 2 - yes, we hate Clemson. It is a true, deep seated hate. We do not hate Georgia year-round, just two or three months out of the year.
Example 3 - Georgia fans hate Spurrier with a passion.

LSU - million dollar band, golden girls, intro 'duh duhduh duh', Mike being brought out, games under the lights, TS, Cholly Mac,

1934...yeah, that was kind of a long time ago...
Not to turn this into an Auburn knock-fest, but I also have to acknowledge that LSU does lead Auburn in every single major category (all-time wins, total bowl wins, head-to-head match-up wins, national titles, SEC titles, SEC Western Division titles, average attendance since the NCAA started compiling it).

I have the series record at 5-4 in favor of LSU in 1934.
But I did go back and look at the record closer:
Stassen doesn't include the 1901 victory of Auburn over LSU in their first meeting. LSU won in 1902 and then again in 1908 but then lost in 1912, 1913 and 1924 at which point Auburn led the series 2-4. LSU then went on to win 6 in a row evening up the series in 1927, 4-4. 6 of those first 8 games werre played in the state of Alabama.
So yeah, 1926 was the last time Auburn led the series at 4-3. They haven't led since. Wow. Call me a liar.

LSU also leads Auburn in conference win%.
Auburn literally has NOTHING over LSU, yet they seem to think they are the better program historically for some odd reason.
