I know this will sound like trolling, but what rivalry? Looking back at the past 5-6 years Alabama has built a juggernaut program and regularly takes Auburn to the woodshed.

Auburn needs heaven and earth to move to squeak out luck filled wins.

Alabama has won 3 national titles, been a permanent fixture in the top 10, and has finished with the #1 recruiting class seemingly every year now.

The hate is at very high levels, Auburn fans resenting all Alabama's championship runs and Alabama fans resenting Auburn's method of pulling shite out of their arse to beat them.

But just from a pure competitive standpoint, LSU is still more of a threat to Alabama's dominance in the West than Auburn is. LSU has had an actual program built for the last decade, must like Alabama has done.

There's a big difference between building a program (ala LSU and Alabama) vs. scooping up Cam Newton one year and completing a few hail mary plays another year.

lol at bammers claiming they have been far superior to Auburn in recent years. Auburn has more SEC championships than any conference team over the last decade and more undefeated seasons than any team in college football over the same time period.

Even if you just go by Saban's tenure, Auburn has the same number of conference championships, same number of undefeated seasons, 1 less appearance in BCS championship, and trail by 1 game in head to head competition

Yet which team has more SEC titles (you know ones you actually have to win on the field) than both?
