I actually watched the 2010 IB the other day, it was on TV. Auburn had a really good 2nd half defense in 2010, and a fair amount of skill speed, a freshman stud RB, and an exceptional TE.

Yes, Cam willed them to victories in most of those games, but his supporting cast wasn't that bad. Not a bunch of NFL talent, but several good college players.

Where would Michael Dyer be listed on Bama’s roster in 2010?

The defense is really underrated and yeah, they always tightened up in the 2nd half. A few of those games looked like Auburn was going to lose big by halftime (Clemson, USC, Georgia, Bama all got out to big leads).

Cam had some clunker games, too, but he did enough to win. The common narrative that the willed wins out of nothing is probably wrong, though. Auburn was a good team. They needed a good QB to win it all, but they weren't slouches.

7 games were 1-score victories.
