SPOILER ALERT: The fact that the Cam-Back is not included on this list is a travesty on par with the Children's Crusade of 1212

18. At No. 4 Auburn 34, No. 1 Alabama 28

Nov. 30, 2013
So much had to happen to set the table for the Kick Six. The Tigers had to come back to tie the Crimson Tide with 32 seconds remaining. Alabama coach Nick Saban had to decide to try for a winning field goal. Tide back T.J. Yeldon had to step out of bounds at the Auburn 38 a split second before time expired. Alabama kicker Cade Foster had to miss three field goals, and Saban had to pivot to freshman Adam Griffith. His 57-yard field goal attempt had to fall into the waiting arms of Chris Davis. The rest is 109 yards of glorious Iron Bowl history.

38. No. 9 Auburn 17, No. 2 Alabama 16
Birmingham, Alabama, Dec. 2, 1972
Fans of both schools remember one of the most famous games in Iron Bowl history by three words: "Punt, Bama, Punt." The Tigers stunned the undefeated, No. 2 Crimson Tide by blocking two punts in the final six minutes to come from behind. Walk-on linebacker Bill Newton blocked both punts, and defensive back David Langner returned both for touchdowns.

50. No. 1 Florida State 34, No. 2 Auburn 31
BCS National Championship, Pasadena, California, Jan. 6, 2014
Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jameis Winston rallied the Seminoles back from an 18-point deficit and threw the winning 2-yard touchdown to Kelvin Benjamin with 13 seconds left in the last BCS National Championship. The Seminoles scored 24 points in the second half, and the teams combined for that many in the last 4:42.

85. At LSU 7, No. 4 Auburn 6
Oct. 8, 1988
On only its second trip into Auburn territory, LSU scored on a fourth-down, 11-yard pass from Tommy Hodson to Eddie Fuller with less than two minutes left. The fan celebration literally shook the ground, as registered by a campus seismograph. LSU's victory broke Auburn's nine-game unbeaten streak in the SEC. Both teams finished at 6-1 in the league.

91. Alabama 25, No. 7 Auburn 23
Legion Field, Birmingham, Nov. 30, 1985
The greatest Iron Bowl not decided by a fluke: four lead changes in the fourth quarter, the third coming with 57 seconds left when Auburn's Reggie Ware scored from a yard out. The Tigers went for two and failed, which left the door open a crack. QB Mike Shula drove the Crimson Tide 45 yards to the Auburn 35 in six plays, converting a fourth-and-6 along the way, and Van Tiffin split the uprights from 52 yards out.

100. At No. 7 Auburn 43, No. 25 Georgia 38
Nov. 16, 2013
Georgia scored three fourth-quarter touchdowns to go ahead of Auburn 38-37. Down to its last prayer, on fourth-and-18 on its 27-yard line with 36 seconds to play, Auburn sent Ricardo Louis deep. Rather than bat down Nick Marshall's pass, Georgia defensive back Tray Matthews tried to intercept it. Teammate Josh Harvey-Clemons got a hand on the ball, which bounced out of Matthews' grasp into the waiting arms of Louis, who ran in for the score. The last prayer -- the Prayer at Jordan-Hare -- was answered.

108. At No. 11 Auburn 30, No. 2 Alabama 20
Dec. 2, 1989
The No. 11 Tigers stunned the previously unbeaten and No. 2-ranked Crimson Tide in the first Iron Bowl played at Auburn. Tigers coach Pat Dye said playing Alabama at Jordan-Hare Stadium was comparable to the "crumbling of the Berlin Wall." It was Auburn's fourth straight win in the series and clinched a share of its third consecutive SEC title.

117. At No. 7 Florida 30, Auburn 27
Oct. 19, 1966
Gators quarterback Steve Spurrier passed for 259 yards with one touchdown and ran for a 1-yard score. The score was tied at 27 when the Gators' drive stalled at Auburn's 25-yard line. Spurrier kicked a 40-yard field goal -- he was his team's long-distance kicker but hadn't made one since the opener -- to win the game. It helped him win the Heisman Trophy during his senior season.

144. No. 1 Auburn 22, No. 2 Oregon 19
BCS National Championship, Glendale, Arizona, Jan. 11, 2011
Down eight points late in the fourth quarter, Oregon scored with 2:33 left and converted the 2-point try to tie the game. Auburn tailback Michael Dyer sprinted to a 37-yard gain after the Ducks thought they had him down to set up Wes Byrum's 19-yard winning field goal at the final gun. The offenses combined for 968 total yards.

148. Auburn 14, Alabama 13
Legion Field, Birmingham, Dec. 3, 1949
The Tigers lost to Bama 55-0 in 1948, which was the first Iron Bowl in 41 years, and entered the season finale with only one win. Clinging to a 14-7 lead, Auburn survived when the Crimson Tide missed the PAT after scoring with 1:20 left.
