Setting the record straight:
The OP is correct, AU has indeed only won 3 games in Tiger Stadium going back to the 1941 game, which was a tie.
Meanwhile, LSU has won only 5 games in what is now called Jordan-Hare Stadium, as the two teams didn't meet on AU's campus field until 1970. In recent years, the Bayou Bengals have had roughly the same lack of success on the road in the series as AU has: since the two teams began playing every season as division rivals in 1992, LSU is 4-8 at JHS, compared to AU's 3-8 mark in TS.
So, an Auburn win this year would put the two teams dead even at both overall record and home field advantage since the first SEC expansion.
AU vs LSU 1992-2014
