Well that's just not true.

You guys aren't fooling anyone. That loss was soul crushing. This season will be remembered forever by Auburn fans and everyone else as the year that Auburn just couldn't finish the job. "The year we came up short."

10 years from now, nobody will know Auburn as the 2013 SEC Champions. They'll remember them as the team that lost to Florida State in the national championship, which temporarily ended the SEC's streak of dominance.

Florida's 1995 team comes to mind.

Nah, it will be remembered as the year that Auburn beat bama in the IB, ending bama's three-peat, won the SEC, and saban went out and hired Lane Kiffin.....scholars will look back and profess that this was the start of the downfall of Nick Saban.

I don't know if anyone will think of Auburn being the 2013 SEC Champions or FSU being the national champions 10 years from now, but Bama losing on a field goal return to Auburn will be remembered 50 years from now. Different teams win SEC and National Championships every year. But the Iron Bowl ending was a rare gem of an ending that will probably never happen again.

I don't really have a dog in this hunt. But anyone watching those last two games could see they had some issues on offense. IMHO...it really boiled down to play calling.

I commented to my friends during the Iron Bowl, that the OC would be looking for a job soon.

Don't know if Kiffin is the answer. That's two really big egos trying to coexist.

We'll see.
