In the 2010's, UA is 5-3 vs AU with a 34.3 to 21.4 scoring differential. For perspective, that is a 12.9 pt avg scoring advantage for UA over that time period, while the 12 point AU victory in the 2017 Iron Bowl was Auburn's largest margin of victory since 1969.

I'm sure he would trade all five championships to get those for losses back.


Nah, that's the AU fan mentality.

I don't know but a guy I work with is a Florida fan and me and him picks with each other. He's always saying that when Saban leaves he will be secretly pulling against us cause he wants to be the GOAT at Bama. And he will want all Tide coaches after him to fail so he looks even better. I know he's just trying to rub me but he says that Saban will pull for LSU to beat us every year.


I seriously doubt that cause he knows this won't happen again in his lifetime. 6 or more NCs by the same guy in next 30 years could only be Urban Meyer and he ain't coming to Bama. No one is going to do it again in a 10 or even 15 year period.




Dude that is what I said. I know he is just trying to get up under my skin. And I don't let him. I just laugh at him and call Mc a shark fricker and a Tide reject. Now that Mc is gone and they got Mullins I call him the hump back of Notre Dame. That will have to do till I come up with something better.

He says "dominate Auburn," he means "win so many national titles Auburn comes out the other end desperate for a moral victory." Gotta read between the lines.

Just laugh at him and say Saban is staying until he dies. Never retires so not around to "pull against us".

This year's loss was the catalyst for the NC playoff run. We appreciate the part AU played in helping Bama win the NC.

That is a good one. But he don't really hate Bama as much as he just wants to mess with me. He aint a bad guy. He was pulling for us against FSU and in the championship game. He let me have it after the Iron Bowl tho. That game sucked arse and the suck lasted until they picked us for the playoffs. Still gets at me that them Auburn twarts keep posting 26-14 on here. We should a had Tua in there. We would a won the Iron Bowl and then we would a won the SEC championship and the national championship.

The average margin of victory in those seven victories for Alabama has been 23 points. So yeah, I'd call that domination. One of those Auburn wins was in Saban's first year, the ones in 2010 and 2013 were herculean comebacks that might as well be classified as miracles, while the 2017 game was against a depleted and injured Alabama team in Jordan-Hare. Plus, had Tagovailoa been the QB in that game instead of Hurts, we might be looking at a different outcome.

I anxiously await your YouTube highlights video of the 2017 Iron Bowl arse raping of Bama!

Count your lucky stars that Kerryon got hurt and that Gus refuses to “play the game” in recruiting. This is probably my biggest qualm with Gus when compared to Saban.

I mean, your cute little long “Hail Mary” play that got tackled on the 5-yd line as time expired was adorable though.

Coach Jordan made this statement about teams not being able to beat Coach Bryant and Bama. The same could be said today about Coach Saban.

"You go by that and they'll have to fire us all." -- Former Auburn coach Shug Jordan on finding out that LSU coach Charlie McLendon had been fired for not being able to defeat Coach Bryant.
