With this win, Alabama posted its first undefeated regular season since 2009. It also extended the winning streak against Auburn to 3 games, tying the longest Alabama streak since the death of Bear Bryant.
Alabama is 5-7 against Auburn in Tuscaloosa and 5-11 in Auburn. The difference isn't who is home, it all has to do with Auburn's record. Alabama has only beaten one double-digit win Auburn team in history - that was in 1974. You're right though that when Alabama wins they usually win by a huge gap. In the last 50 years, all but five of Alabama's Iron Bowl wins have come by a touchdown or more (the exceptions are in 1974, 1984, 1985, 1996, and 2009). Most of Bama's Iron Bowl victories come with a multiple touchdown differential. By contrast, Auburn's 12 point win in 2017 was their widest margin of victory over Alabama in more than 50 years.
Yep - just like 2015 when Derrick Henry ate up about 7 or 8 minutes by himself - he did that twice in 2015 - ate up about 8 minutes against LSU - but I am talking about on 1 possession lol - never seen anyone do that since - about 15 minutes of clock on 2 possession combined in 2 games to end the games lol - ( one man) - dang I miss Derrick Henry - 🐘🏆 ROLL TIDE
Too bad the Defense got tired in the 4th quarter against Clemson. But no need to worry, they'll be in the 4 team playoff again next year. No team from the SEC is going to take the throne from them.

Ever notice.. Alabama usually wins comfortably at home and struggles in Auburn?

I'm starting to get this feeling that Alabama Crimson Tide will be labeled as 'the king of the s.e.c in college football history.
