QUICK! WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME VANDERBILT BEAT AUBURN?

It was 1955, in the Gator Bowl. Vanderbilt won 25-13.

Since then, the two teams have played 13 times with Auburn winning every time, by an average score of 36-12.

Ouch.

In fact, Auburn is the only SEC team the Commodores have failed to beat since the magical Hall of Fame Bowl season of 1982.
