That's a good order. The 83 Auburn team was named national champs in some polls and should have been in all polls. They played an incredibly tough schedule that year and the team chemistry was there. The 89 team struggled throughout the year, but found itself for the last three games.

UGA was especially good in 80 and 82.

The bama defense in 92 was as good a defense as I have seen on a college team. Auburn's 88 defense was special, but the 92 bama defense was a weapon.
