Luckily we don't have to worry about that very often.

Really?

*Bama is 6-10 all-time in Jordan-Hare
*All six of Bama’s wins EVER in JHS came against Auburn teams with 5 or more losses.
*Two #1 Bama teams have lost inside JHS
*Four Top 5 Bama teams have lost inside JHS
*Nick Saban is 4-7 all-time in JHS as a head coach
*Saban has lost as many SEC games in JHS as he has in any single stadium despite playing far fewer times there (He’s 4-7 in Jordan-Hare, 60-7 in Bryant Denny, and 22-6 in Tiger Stadium)

Even in the four losses Auburn has had at home to Saban, 3 of the 4 were closer than they should have been.

In 2021, 7-6 Auburn led the entire game until the last minute and ultimately lost in 4OT

In 2009, 8-5 Auburn led the eventual national champs up until the final minute.

In 2015, it was an 8-point game with 2 minutes to play for 7-6 Auburn against the eventual National Champs.

Obviously anyone should assume Auburn has a very good chance to win the Iron Bowl this year.

… more interesting stats in regard to Saban’s struggles at Jordan-Hare.

Nick Saban’s Head Coaching record in Regular Season SEC games by Venue… sorted by most losses:

7- Jordan Hare Stadium (4-7)
7- Bryant Denny Stadium (60-7)
6- Tiger Stadium (22-6)
2- Neyland Stadium (7-2)
2- Razorback Stadium* (10-2)
1- Williams Bryce Stadium (2-1)
1- Sanford Stadium (2-1)
1- Kyle Field (4-1)
1- Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (4-1)
1- Vaught-Hemingway Stadium (9-1)
1- Davis Wade Stadium (9-1)
0- Ferout Field (0-2)
0- Vanderbilt Stadium (0-2)

JHS is the only stadium in which he has a losing record and he’d have to coach through 2027 just to have a shot to get to .500

I like the "Auburn Sucks and No Chance to Win Anything" approach.

I love how it’s a safe bet to just assume A&M will implode rather than assume improvement on the offense and 9-10 wins.

With neither one of these teams able to complete many forward passes it will be interesting to see how it shakes out.

You obviously didn’t watch Jayden Daniels throw for over two hundred yards in one half on a bum leg against Georgia. How some of you function in life is confounding.

Well, when you have a ten point swing because your special teams screws up again, you have a fluke interception that leads to a short field (thats 17 points right there), the score gets out of hand. And if this had to do with the fact that LSU’s defense after the first three and out was destroyed by Georgia’s offense, you would get no argument from me. It doesn’t change the fact that Daniels (on one leg and with no ability to scramble) was 16 of 24 for over 200 yards in one half. That is a FACT not an opinion. And my comment was to the dumbass who stated LSU isn’t playing a guy who can complete a forward pass. So if you want to keep moving the goal posts, go right ahead

Which dogs?

There’s too many dogs and cats in this conference.

Didn’t LSU have 500+ passing yds against the national champs last year. Or was that by design by UGA? I know we lost but this was about competing a forward pass. We have most of the offense back. I think your way off on underestimating our offensive ability

If you don’t have us last then you’re clueless.
