I got a full time job, 2 young kids and a bitchy wife! No way in hell do I have the time to do top 5 at each position.
I will however read along on the thread and add my 2 cents if others play along.

You can just do one position if you want. Or just fill in here and there.

I've always felt that Antonio Coleman is maybe the most underrated Auburn Tiger of all time.

Bo and Mason are on top based on numbers. After that, pick one. It's stupid how many great backs we have had.

I agree. Him and Fairley are my favorite DL of all time.

I don't know what you do with Zeke Smith. I know the family personally, so I'm a little biased. He could be OL or DL.


quote:

In 1958, Zeke Smith won the Outland Trophy given to the nation's top lineman and was selected as an All-America guard. He was the ringleader of a Tiger defense that held Tennessee to minus-33 yards offense and no first downs. Smith was named All-SEC later that year. Bobby Dodd, then Georgia head coach, called Smith and Kentucky lineman Lou Michaels "the greatest lineman in the SEC in the past 10 years." After leaving Auburn, Smith played professional football for the Baltimore Colts and New York Giants. Since 1977, Auburn has presented the Zeke Smith Award to the team's defensive Player of the Year.

Based on? Cox threw for over 40 touchdowns and like 6000+ yards. Plus he raped Alabama.
