This is a legitimate question the OPis asking. Auburns defense is good enough to beat both Georgia and Bama. The AU offense would have to have zero turn overs and play lights out ball control football to pull it off though. You also must take into account how hard it is to beat the same team twice in the same season. Look at UF - Fla St in 1996 and Bama - LSU in 2011. If Auburn did pull all of that off, I would imagine that Auburn would be in the four team playoff. Bama's schedule would hurt us I'm afraid.


It will not be talked about much, but if AU beats A&M and UGA the next two weeks, it will the top topic covered. I think the SEC gets left out in that scenario, which is why you will start seeing the SECN/ESPN pushing the strength of the SEC the next few weeks.

It would be a tough sell to leave out an Auburn team that beat Alabama and Georgia twice. I know it all depends on what the rest of the conferences do in their respective records and championship games. But again, to leave out a two loss Auburn, SEC Champion would be bs in my strong opinion.
