Roll Tide!
The decade of the 2000s was arguably the worst in the history of the Alabama football program.
And yet the best Auburn can do is claim that they are Alabama’s equal?
That is actually rather pathetic.
And, just out of curiosity, why limit your analysis to a 30-year time period?
If you assess the two programs from the year that Shug Jordan retired, the statistics are skewed in Alabama’s favor, especially in terms of key metrics such as national titles, SEC championships and bowl game records.
However, the real test is to compare Alabama and Auburn over their entire history:
By winning percentage nationwide —
8th — Alabama
24th — Auburn
When you include bowl victories, conference championships and national titles, then the numbers are skewed again, and quite dramatically —
1. Alabama
2. Notre Dame
3. Southern Cal
....
9. LSU
10. Tennessee
11. Georgia
...
15. Auburn
