Strength of schedule. You avoided playing the top teams in the SEC twice, outside of Alabama. You feasted on the bottom half of the SEC. Meanwhile your non-conference schedule was laughable, and you still lost your only big NC game (Baylor), plus one to a cream puff in App St.

Even your SEC tournament run featured only one game against a top team in South Carolina. Florida lost a starter in the first minutes of the championship game.

Auburn is really good, but a 4 seed is where you belong. Had you lost to MSU or Florida, you would probably be a 5 seed, or maybe even a 6 (like South Carolina, for many of the same reasons).
