Alabama and OU are incredibly close as programs. UA losing and OU winning out could switch their two total wins rankings
LSU is 12th and AU is 13th...19 wins difference....LSU having a combined 19 wins in the two recent seasons (2012, 2015) where Auburn had 3 wins and might reach 7 this year. LSU is sort of new money, being an actual elite program in the 50s on with a bad stretch from the 80s to the 90s
Auburn is incredibly inconsistent, but they usually aren't shytty for any long stretch of time, which is pretty incredible when you consider they dont have many back to back 10 win seasons
