The Story of Auburn Football

It was the Fall of 2010 and Auburn fans had high hopes for their beloved Tigers. They had a talented team led by a Heisman hopeful quarterback and were ready to take on the SEC. They started out strong, winning their first five games, but then something amazing happened. They beat the defending national champions, Alabama, in a historic comeback victory that became known as the "Kick Six".

From that moment on, Auburn football was back on the map. They went on to win the SEC championship and played for the national championship, falling just short to Florida State.

Over the next decade, Auburn football continued to make noise, producing some of the best players in the country and winning big games. As we look back on the past 10 years, we remember these players and celebrate their accomplishments.

A Brief History of Auburn Football

Auburn football dates back to 1892, when the team played its first game against the University of Georgia. Over the years, the Tigers have become known for their passionate fanbase, historic rivalries, and talented players.

One of the most important moments in Auburn football history came in 1957, when the university hired Ralph "Shug" Jordan as the head coach. Jordan would go on to coach the team for 25 years, leading them to a national championship in 1957 and several SEC titles.

Since then, Auburn has had several successful seasons, including four SEC championships and two national championships. The program has produced Heisman Trophy winners and countless NFL players, cementing its place as one of the top football programs in the country.

The Auburn Football All-Decade Team

Without further ado, here is our Auburn football all-decade team:

Offense

Defense

Special Teams

These players were chosen based on their individual achievements, as well as their contributions to the team's success during their time at Auburn.

For example, Cam Newton was a no-brainer choice at quarterback, as he led the Tigers to a national championship in 2010 and became the first player in SEC history to pass for over 2,000 yards and rush for over 1,000 yards in a single season. Tre Mason was one of the best running backs in the country during his time at Auburn, leading the SEC in rushing in 2013 and scoring 23 touchdowns.

On defense, Derrick Brown was a dominant force, earning All-American honors and winning the Lott IMPACT Trophy in 2019. Carlton Davis was one of the best cornerbacks in the SEC, making 13 interceptions during his career at Auburn.

Overall, this team represents the best of Auburn football over the past decade.
