Auburn's season from a historic perspective

Knowing very well that it could all be wiped away down the road, and also not saying it is anymore impressive than any of the other SEC BCSNC's, I am just curious how Auburn's accomplishements over the last few years measure up.
I know that AU, Bama and UT all have had undefeated NC seasons, and Saban has BCS titles with two different schools.
With the end of this season, Auburn now has two perfect seasons in 7 seasons, and three in 18 seasons (although only one BCS title and two SECs). When was the last time a team had three undefeated seasons in a 20 year span? Miami in the 80s, or Bama in the 60s/70s?
Chizik now has been part of 2 undefeated BCS title teams (one as an assistant and one as a head coach). How many coaches have done this, and who was the last?

Alabama in 1961, 1966, and 1979.

My perception is this had less to do with Chizicks ability as an x and O guy and more with his ability as a coach who is obviously very good at getting his guys to not only stick together but to be very like minded and buy in. Not a flame but lets face it out of the last 5 NC from the sec this is imo the least talented top to bottom but they played together like a great team and that is underrated many times.

From a historic perspective, Auburn 2010 was not the first team to cheat its way into a BCS title.
Also, they probably weren't the first team to rely on biased officiating to get to the championship.
When Auburn vacates, it won't be the first time a team has vacated their national championship.

I talked about Auburn's season from a historic perspective. What's the problem? Am I wrong?

well yes no proof Cam took any money and the officiating wasnt any worse than yrs past. If Bama hadnt blown a 24 pt lead in one half of football they dont go so regardless of any call they benefitted from earlier in the season; If Saban doesnt get arrogant with that lead they dont make it and no one cares about cam newton.

Does it take a genius to figure out what the OP's handle means?
