Time Out For Trivia: Iron Bowl edition

Thought I might share this one with the board and see if anyone else noticed this anamoly:
Since the rivalry resumed in 1948, eighteen different men have taken the field as Head Coach for the respective institutions - 8 for Auburn and 10 for Alabama.
Of those 18 HCs, six share this same peculiar history from their IB appearances: Earl Brown, Pat Dye, and Tommy Tuberville for AU, and Paul Bryant, Ray Perkins, and Mike Dubose for the Tide.
Even more remarkably, both Gene Chizik and Nick Saban are both in a position to join this unusual club - in fact, one may join the club at the conclusion of this season.
Any guesses?

I've got no idea. It was a shot in the dark.
What's the answer?
