Just stop.




School claimed title. It was legit. I mean, I have an Auburn fan wanting to claim 6 titles, and said they are all more legit than our 1980 title.

You claimed it over 40 years later. Even Buck Belue said it's bogus.

Buck Belue?

If Auburn wants to claim 1957, while they were on indefinite probation by the SEC for paying players, then I can claim 1942. And there is nothing you can do about it.

Twice........since they started like, playing football.

Auburns ownage of south Carolina.

The Florida streak over Kentucky. Any streak that long is impressive no matter who u play.

The streak of Bama beating LSU in tiger stadium from 69 to 2000.

Phil Jackson 3 peated as NBA champions 3 times, with two separate teams. He took a one year hiatus and won 6 titles in seven years.

Wooden won 7 straight NCAAB titles in a row, and won 10 total in 12 seasons....

Oklahoma beat Texas am in football 77-0

What’s also crazy about this is that a&m beat Oklahoma the year before, and was tied with oklahoma in the 4th the year after before losing by a TD.

81pt swing from ‘02 to ‘03. This either was—or was close to—an NCAA record.

70pt swing from ‘03 to ‘04.

EDIT '98-'99 a&m/oklahoma was a 73pt swing, and '09-'10 was a 69pt swing.

Bama's 13-2 record in "playoff" type games under Saban since the first NC in 2009:
5-0 SECC games
3-0 BCS NC games
5-2 in CFP games, including 2 NCs. The only NC loss was a come from behind score with literally 1 second left.
That's performing under pressure. Bama is also 5-1 vs teams ranked number 1. The only loss was in OT.

Bama's 27-9-2, 74% record in Baton Rouge is mind-boggling. I can't imagine another program having that kind of record vs a another top 10 program in its sport, especially college football and in a tough venue. Bama has always been a great road team, having a winning record as the visitor vs every SEC program. But the record vs LSU in BR is unfathomable.

The 12 point loss to AU last year was the first time that Bama has lost to AU by more than 10 points since 1969 - 48 years and that was an 8pt game with Bama driving for the tying score with 7 1/2 min left. Then Bama collapsed and AU outscored Bama 21-6 including a fake punt. If not for that it would have been 60 years.

1922 and 1997. The '97 game was a triple OT game at their place and we had several walk-on's starting that year due to probation. Marcus Spencer was the best of them.

We didn't lose in Tigah Stadium for 3 decades straight (70's, 80's, 90's).

27-8-2, 75.7% all time in Tigah Stadium.

For Bama, Red Stick's Tiger Stadium is home away from home. An alternative home stadium if you will.

Bama has beaten itself once in each of the last three seasons. The Tide is undefeated against everyone else during the same period

In the 2017 Playoff Championship game Clemson ran 99 offensive plays but was penalized on exactly 0 offensive snaps.

In two Championship games against Alabama in 2016 & 2017 Clemson was penalized for holding 0 times on 184 snaps despite going up against the best DL in college football this decade.

Since 1971 Bama has two 11 game winning streaks and a stretch where they went 8-0-1 against Tennessee.

The average Auburn fan has more birth defects (2), than they have eyes (1), or teeth (0).

They didn't count their own score correctly. It's 27-9-2. But don't want to make too big of a deal about it. Either case is mind blowing.
