"Auburn only beats us when we are down"...DEBUNKED

Let's look at the past 3 decades of football:

Auburn 16 wins, Alabama 14 wins.

Auburn's victories breakdown like this:
4 series wins over 10-win (or more) Bama teams (25%)
2 series wins over 9-win Bama teams (12.5%)
3 series wins over 8-win Bama teams (18.8%)
12 wins over Bama teams with winning records (75%)
4 wins over Bama teams with losing records (25%)


Alabama's victories breakdown like this:

3 series wins over 8-win Auburn teams (25%)
7 series wins over Auburn teams with winning records (50%)
6 wins over Auburn teams with losing records (42.9%)

Auburn is 4-9 against the best Alabama teams of the Era.
Alabama is 0-6 against the best Auburn teams of the Era.

56% of Auburn's wins came against bama teams with 8 or more wins.
36% of Alabama's wins came against auburn teams with 8 or more wins.



If there is anyone that takes advantage of the other team being down, it's Alabama. Don't worry, Auburn WILL be back.
