If you’re old enough, some of you can talk to your parents about the 1948 Iron Bowl. For most of us though, you’ll have to see if your grandparents remember it...either that or hit the microfiche.
Then 1948 game saw the .500 Crimson Tide and the one-win Auburn Tigers meet at Birmingham’s Legion Field to renew a series that had not been played since 1907. The Tide laid utter waste to the Tigers, 55-0, setting an Iron Bowl record for the worst loss by either team. To this day, that 55-point margin of victory is still the the most lopsided.
