Is averaging 25th over 5 years elite?

2011 really brought the average down, but that was easily the least talented Auburn team I remember, especially on offense.

Auburn had guys like Clint Moseley, Barrett Trotter, Kiehl Frazier, AJ Greene, Jared Cooper, John Sullen, Quindarius Carr, Deangelo Benton, Trovon Reed, Travante Stallworth, Chad Slade, Tunde Fariyke, Eric Mack, Blake Burgess and Jay Wisner either starting, contributing or serving as a back-up.

IMO, it's a miracle they finished where they did.
