upsets by the line are possible but a true upset rarely happens. I dont think a top 5 team winning at home against anyone is an upset.
The last two were when alabama won in 2001 and auburn won in 2002. Before that you would almost have to go back to 1990.

So Auburn has upset Bama 3 times out of 7 and 3 out of 4 when the line was less than 11... Bama never upsets Auburn, interesting...
