Alabama comes into the 2019 season riding a streak of five straight seasons with at least 12 wins. The last time the Tide failed to hit that mark was 2013, when they lost their No. 1 ranking and perfect record in their regular-season finale, a 34-28 loss to Auburn. The game is remembered as the Kick Six Game for the missed field-goal attempt that was returned for a game-winning touchdown. But as Bleacher Report contributor Lars Anderson writes in his new book, the game-tying play earlier in the fourth quarter of that loss might have had an even bigger long-term impact than the Kick Six on Alabama coach Nick Saban, evolving the way he runs both his offense and defense.
