Why is Les Miles so much more successful against Auburn than Saban?

Les Miles is 7-2 against Auburn while Saban will have a losing record to Auburn after this year.
What is the missing ingredient that Saban is missing?

1. our defense is oriented to a spread offense
2. Rivalry game

Saban is hard headed so when he sees how LSU is able to stop Auburn, instead of copying it he wants to do it his own way and it blows up in his face.

Why can Auburn beat Saban but have a losing record to Arkansas during that same time frame?

Because Saban had to build the program that Les took over.

Auburn has sucked for the exception of three years while les has been at lsu. Saban has had one bad season.

Maybe those AU players really, really, really, wanna beat those guys in the Crimson jerseys. Hasn't that ever occurred to you man? Sir?

To answer seriously......Les is unpredictable. Saban is not a great X's and O's coach. He is a Jimmy Johnson clone. I have heard Jimmy Johnson say numerous times that he wasn't a great X's and O's guy. His strength was evaluating talent. That is saban in a nutshell, IMO. He's not going to out-coach you very often. He is going to bring better talent into the game most times. Les takes crazy chances that seem to work most of the time. saban's crazy chances seem to backfire on him. That is my take on it anyway.

Not sure you really want a legit discussion or not, but I think there could be a few reasons:
Bounce of the ball in close games (doesn't necessarily have to do with Saban versus Miles, more of an anomoly that can produce seemingly surprising results when you carve out particular data sets). Sometimes you have good/bad days, sometimes the other team has good/bad days.
Saban took on two rebuilding projects during this time period
Intensity of Alabama - Auburn rivalry (I feel like one of Saban's attributes is to build a pretty steady workmanlike team that usually have very successful seasons but sometimes I don't think they always match the extra intensity of the other side in big rivalry games)
Saban's relative struggle against the HUNH / spread teams / mobile QBs (really would just apply to the 2013 loss mostly, maybe 2010)

And why is it Saban can't defeat an Auburn teamwith a pulse?
AU's records during Saban victories (also keep in mind AU underwent three coaching changes during this period):
2008: 5-7
2009: 7-5
2011: 7-5
2012: 3-9
But Saban can't seem to beat an Auburn team with a pulse:
2007: 9-4
2010: 14-0
2013: 12-2
At the rate Auburn is going, Saban may never defeat AU again!
