Can't sell the 2010 Auburn O-Line short. We had a lot of solid collegiate athletes. The receiving core and our backfield were good examples. Yes, Dyer was probably NFL caliber had he not shot himself in the foot. But the remainder of those guys on both sides of the ball were very solid, but not NFL caliber. Some went to smaller leagues, CFL, etc.

Cam doesn't lead a comeback for the ages (2010 IB) with a team of high schoolers.

Nobody is arguing Auburn had Samford’s talent.

It’s just not the typical talent you see win the national championship game from your usual football factories- OHIO State, Bama, Georgia, etc

Auburn then was more like TCU, except even TCU had 8 drafted including in rounds 1,2, and 3 this year.

Difference is Auburn won and didn’t get embarrassed


Good article: showing the rarity in Auburn’s victory
