Honestly the last four years have been better than the previous 8 or 9 when we were always above average.
When we are good we are SEC/national title good and when we are bad we are so bad it's not even worth getting upset over.
Being a 9-3 program is the absolute pits. Good enough to always get your hopes up but never get enough to win anything that matters.
Agreed, I said many times I would take several sorry seasons for a chance to actually win one title. I believed until 2010 that our name by itself would prevent us from ever getting an opportunity at a title. In 2012 after 2010 felt like my wish might have come true, but thankfully we don't stay down long.

It is amazing.
Sharing incredible moments in the stadium with friends and family.
Dancing around in the street in college station screaming "we are back baby".
watching my boys win their second SEC title in 3 years and their 3rd in 10.
watching our rivals want to puke their guts out while we celebrate historic game endings!
awesome just awesome.

Sometimes you're flying high...
And sometimes it's a struggle...
In the end, it's always great to be an Auburn tiger..

It is pretty fricking great right now.
I've been going to AU games since I was 2 and can remember specifics about where I was for big AU games since I was 5-6 yrs old.
I'm now in my 30s but I remember back to Pat Dye. The past 4 years rival about any time. We won 3 straight SEC titles and I wasat the biggest game in AU history in 89.
The past few years rival that. 2010 and 2014 may have been the best two years to ever be an Aubie IMO.

Even though we didn't win the 'ship, last year was the most fun I've ever had watching sports.
I'm looking forward to this season, but I'd be lying if I told you I wasn't at least a bit apprehensive because we'll never replicate something like that in my lifetime.

Auburn football is sometimes like a comet. It comes zooming in from out of nowhere and takes over the show.
One never knows what the future might bring...

Any fan of any team who has ever been on a championship run knows how nerve racking it can be. When you loose a game you shouldn't and need some luck to get back in the hunt it is worse.
Last year was fun because after about the 6th or 7th win everything seemed like gravy then you blinked and we were actually better than the rest of the teams on our schedule. The SEC seemed like a real possibility. Then to get the opportunity to play for a BCS title with a lose…that never happens to Auburn. Loosing the BCS game sucked but it wasn't like we were a better team and lost. We just didn't have enough to beat a team with superior talent like FSU at that stage of the season. After 2011 and 2012 I hope the 13 seconds keeps us motivated moving forward.
