Fun fact...

stolen from ITAT:

Since the SEC expanded in 1992, Auburn has as many undefeated seasons (1993, 2004 and 2010) as the rest of the SEC combined (Bama 1992, 2009 and Tennessee 1998).

And we didn't even have to have an SID pull that shit out of his ass either.

What are y'alls opinion on 1993?

2004 and 2010 are no brainers but 1993 has me on the fence because as much as I want to believe it, I just don't know that they would have beaten Florida in a rematch in the SECC, which makes it harder for me to claim them as a true undefeated team like 2004 and 2010.

also: does this get me called a bammer?

This^^^

But as I understand it from previous discussions...you DO claim it.

I do, as evidenced from my signature. When it comes down to it, it wasn't those kids fault that they couldn't play another game...just as it wasn't the 2004 teams fault that they couldn't play USC. I won't mitigate all the hard work they put into those seasons.

But I am way more on the fence about 1993 than I am 2004, probably because I didn't really see them with my own eyes (I was 9) like I did 2004 when I actually sat in classes with some of them.

We beat their ass in Gainesville the very next year, with basically the exact same team. Only big loss from 93 I can think of is White.

I can still picture the 95+ yard interception for a return in the 93 Florida game. We were down 10 nothing, and it looked like the ass kicking was about to begin. But once we returned that interception, you knew we were going to win.

Fact is, Auburn went undefeated against every team the NCAA would LET them play against. They did all they could do. End of story. Undefeated.

We were sitting amongst the Jorts for that one. Never had so much fun in my life at a game until ~~2002~~ ~~2004~~ ~~2006~~ 2010 in Tuscaloosa.
