2. Auburn Tigers
Last week: Won 43-38 vs Georgia
The Auburn Tigers were very close to seeing their SEC west title hopes slip away on Saturday evening.
Facing a 4th and 18 situation, with under a minute to go in the game, the Tigers needed a miracle — and that’s exactly what they received.
Nick Marshall’s desperation pass was nearly picked off by two Georgia defenders, before landing in the hands of Ricardo Louis who in turn took it to the endzone for the game-winning score.
The Iron bowl, on November 30, now has the biggest of implications on not only the SEC, but the entire BCS landscape.
Auburn’s offense is for real, now they’ll have to prove they have a defense capable of beating Alabama.
