You might have a point if anyone was claiming Auburn has a great Defense.
So by your own admission, Alabama has a great defense. Is that what I am understanding? We are in agreement that Auburn has a terrible defense.
In 2013, Auburn gave up 420 yards a game to virtually the same opponents Alabama gave up 286 yards on.
In 2012, Auburn was still giving up 420 yards on average to opponents Alabama was giving up 250 yards on average to.
Every team in the SEC West plays virtually the same teams every single season, and Alabama's defensive stats for both 2012 and 2013 are far and above the rest of the division.
That might be coincidence or that might be good defense. I already know which side you will pick so don't waste my time.

Controlling the interior of the line is more important than how fat the d-ends are... If you can control and run the ball down their throat this will open up the ends... That's the reason AU beat bama last year... It's not that their ends are fat and slow, it's the fact that you have to keep them honest and not forsake the run up the middle... If you do this their ends will have a field day...
