Its been too one sided

The W-L column yes. But, the context of the game always has a rivalry build over the 2 week run up to the game. It is a big game that is circled on each calendar EVERY year.

6 of the last 10 games have been top 5 matchups (throwing out the NCG - it is still 5 of the last 10 regular season games were top 5 matchups with a pair of top 10 games in the mix). All of those were of course in November or later when rankings are much more accurate.

There are 0 unranked matchups;7 x 1 possession games since 2007; 8 x single digit wins; 3 x OTs; and only 3 x games that were > a 2 possession game.

The 8 game streak and disparity in # of titles and title game appearances likely make it feel more one sided than it actually is.

Since the "Les is More" signs and burning Saban effigies in 2008, it has been the marquee matchup in the SEC much more often than not.
