How many times have you heard it said that Auburn cares most about beating Alabama while Alabama cares more about winning national championships?

Here's more evidence to support that argument:

Auburn 3, Alabama 0.

Three is the number of Iron Bowls that Auburn's including in its SEC Network takeover Wednesday, part of a two-week midsummer blitz that gives each school in the league 24 hours to program the network as it likes with great games, documentaries and original programming.

Zero is the number of Iron Bowls that Alabama chose for its takeover Monday.

Well in AU's defense they only have the one "bought" Cam Newton National Championship that they could show.

If we put as much emphasis on the auburn game as they do we would have quite a few more wins in this series. If you don't beat auburn every year then you will not playing for the NC. We only play for NCs is a ridiculous and arrogant statement IMO.

It's not the ONLY thing we play for. However, Bama's success is measured in whether or not we win the NC. The Barn's success is measured in whether or not they beat Bama.

I posted elsewhere that Bama would find itself as the victim of a number of other teams' "great victories". How far can they go back ?

I'll bet at least the following games are included (probably more):
LSU 2011
AU 2013, 1989, 2010
A&M 2012
Ark 1998
OM 2014
MSU 1980, 2006 or 2007
UF 2008, 1994
UT 1982, 1996
SoCar 2010
UK 1997
Vandy 1984
