I don't think people realize how close Auburn was in every loss they had. Auburn was a pick 6 away for playing for the West title.

That's a dangerous slope though. They got some breaks too.

They were also Les Miles clock management away from 6 losses and needed a 4th quarter interception to avoid possible OT with Vanderbilt.

If they get good QB play and the defense stays reliable they could be really good this season but their 2016 record was a pretty reasonable representation of the team they had last season.
