Upsets may not occur often in the series, but more times than not the game is really close and competitive. Only times it's not competitive is when we blow them out.

Meh, 2004 and 2005 were not really very competitive.
The 2005 game was over by the end of the first quarter. A TD in the final seconds was the only thing that made it look like it wasn't a blowout, but bama wasn't even close to competitive in that one.
In 2004, we scored 21 points on three straight possessions to start the second half to go up big, then bama scored a TD and got a two point conversion with a few seconds left on a hail mary throw. That one was over by mid third quarter.
