1983- lost to Texas in the regular season. Game did not affect our bowl slot. We would have played Michigan in the Sugar Bowl either way. But had Auburn not lost to Texas in Week 2, we would have undoubtedly been 1983 National Champs (should have been anyway)
Miami beat the #1 team in their bowl game.
You'd have been #2.

Miami was #5 going into that bow game. Auburn not winning the ‘83 title is considered by many to be the greatest skrewjob in the history of CFB.
The only reason Miami was able to jump that high up the rankings is because all the teams at the top had just one loss.
An unbeaten ‘83 Auburn team would have undoubtedly won the championship that season.
