I've always snickered a little when people talk about how "incredibly hard" it is to win in Jordan-Hare.
We owned Auburn in their place even when we sucked.
Dooley was 7-5-1 at Auburn. Goff beat them there, and tied them there to end their 20 game win streak, going 1-1-1. Donnan went 2-1 there, including the 4OT classic. Richt was 5-3 there. Kirby is 3-1.
They have good fan support. But FFS, people overstate their homefield advantage. Look at this year. Cal beat them. Oklahoma beat them. Both in JHS. They've certainly given Bama a hard time in JHS. But that's a Bama issue, not a general "JHS is incredible" issue.
