"Undefeated Auburn" - Revisiting Auburn's historic, championship-winning 2010 season
Спорт
AL.com presents "Undefeated Auburn", the story of Auburn's historic 2010 season told through the words of those who played in it, coached it and covered it.
Two years after being hired, Gene Chizik brought home Auburn's first national championship since 1957.
On the 10-year anniversary of the ultimate end to the 2010 season, let’s look back at the tumultuous story that finished with a fairy tale ending.
To say Chizik was an unpopular hire would be an understatement. The booing that met him at the airport as he stepped foot onto the Plains said it all. The transition wasn’t the smoothest behind the scenes either, linebacker Josh Bynes recalled. “He came in and just set the tone from the beginning,” Bynes said.
With his players behind him, Auburn went 5-0 to start the season and then almost beat Alabama. It finished the season 8-5, three wins better than Tuberville’s final season.
“Coach Chiz had a plan, and he always had a plan, and he wanted to work his plan,” said defensive back Zac Etheridge, who was hired as Auburn’s cornerbacks coach Friday. “Really, that year, we started to form a brotherhood.”
That brotherhood became even more critical the next season, helping the Tigers through tough moments on and off the field.
Through 2009, Bynes said the team could see “spurts of great moments,” but it needed something to take it to the next level. It turned out a junior college quarter back from Blinn College was the boost they needed. Cam Newton’s National Letter of Intent came through the hotel fax machine the day Auburn played Northwestern in the Outback Bowl, giving Auburn a great start to the new year.
“Our staff knew this was a really big deal,” said Malzahn, the offensive coordinator at the time. “I don’t know if anybody else did at the time.”
Newton started making a difference immediately, both on the field and in the locker room. He was a “great multiplier,” Chizik said, and made other players better. But Newton also unintentionally brought an added level of drama to the season. After ESPN reported that Newton’s father, Cecil, had been trying to make a financial deal with Mississippi State for Newton to go there, an NCAA investigation ensued.
Somehow, the coaches kept the team grounded. When Newton’s eligibility was reinstated the morning of the Georgia game, Etheridge said he and his teammates didn’t even know Newton had been suspended.
Newton played even better in that game against Auburn’s oldest rival and his home state’s school. And then, in the next game, he led Auburn in a comeback against Alabama, which has come to be known in Auburn lore as the “Camback.”
As the Heisman winner, Newton was clearly a big part of the 2010 season, but there were a lot of other players who were crucial. The veteran offensive line helped Newton to be able to run teams into the ground. By being reliable targets, the wide receivers punished any teams that tried to commit to stopping the run. And the defense made enough plays to ensure Auburn came out on top at the end of each game, like the forced fumble in the Alabama game that kept Auburn from falling to 28-0 and instead allowed the comeback.
“I think that was the defining moment of ‘good to great,’ " Bynes said.
It took everyone to be able to squeeze out the numerous one-score wins, like the 17-point comeback against Clemson and the three-point wins over Kentucky and Mississippi State. And it took everyone to win that final game, the national championship against Oregon.
That year, Chizik said the Ducks were the best at pretty much everything, but their offense in particular moved at “warp speed.” Everyone thought it was going to be a shootout, with the defenses scrambling to keep up.
But when the defense came back after a couple of series and said the game didn’t seem fast at all, Chizik knew Auburn would do just fine keeping up with Oregon. He was right. By the last two minutes of the game, the teams were tied at a low 19 points each.
Then running back Michael Dyer had a run he somehow kept in play despite being tackled. It set up an easy field goal for Wes Byrum, who nailed it.
With that field goal, Byrum cemented Auburn as the best team in the country in 2010. Despite the investigation, despite all the close games, despite the turmoil of a coaching change just two years before, the Tigers were able to come together and get the job done.
“For me to sit down and to really describe it, I’d probably cheapen it,” Chizik said. “But to be able to say on a particular given day, as you hold up a trophy, that there’s nobody in the world that was better than you, that’s a lot.”

2010 was straight bs….. if your Auburn fan fine rejoice your got the goods. But holy f@ck does that season not make any sense….. Let me remind you of the fact that 2010 TCU magically didn’t make the championship game despite outranking Auburn and Oregon through 75% of the season and going undefeated for the second consecutive year. Good luck explaining that one especially when they beat 5 Top 25 teams (better than Oregon), ranked #4 in offense (better than Auburn), ranked #1 in defense (better than Auburn and Oregon, and ranked #2 in margin of victory per game (better than Auburn and Oregon). TCU beat #6 Utah on the road by 40, and did not move in the rankings…… Tell the sport is rigged without telling me the sport is rigged…. Furthermore TCU wasn’t even the best G5 team for most of the season. Cuz if the BS against TCu isn’t enough, good luck explaining: HOW THE ACTUAL F@CK Oregon jumped Boise State in Week 6? The Boise State who won 32 CONSECUTIVE GAMES, two of which were literally against Oregon….. Boise State won 34 straight games and dropped in the rankings BEFORE THEY LOST…. WHAT THE F@CK? Explain how you can beat opponents: 49-10 52-7 (vs a T20 team btw) 62-14 51-0 And drop from #2 to #4? Love to hear the explanation on that bs……

Auburn was very good in 04, but they’re not beating 04 USC. 5 teams went undefeated in 04, and I would give it to USC by a mile….. By 2006 the rankings for SEC teams EXTREMELY SUSPECT….. 06 is Florida with Tebow, which they’re good, but the selection of Florida over Michigan is a direct contradiction of 2011. Plus if you look into the rankings things get very weird…. Whose Floridas best win in 2006? #3 LSU. 06 LSU went 11-2 and beat uh ZERO Top 10 teams, so how the world did they finish #3? Seems like LSU got there by beating then #5 Arkansas. Why was Arkansas #5? Because they beat then #2 Auburn and #13 Tenn. I’m starting to see a trend of SEC teams getting RIDICULOUSLY OVERRATED, other SEC teams beating these teams which overrated the entire rest of the conference…. Arkansas got BLOWN THE F&CK out at home vs #6 USC to start the season, but in the span of 10 weeks by beating teams that went 52-69 they became a Top 5 team…… Something is wrong with that picture….. Arkansas got jump started by beating then #2 Auburn. How did get to #2? Well they magically jumped from #14 (9-3) in 05 to #4 in 06 without playing a single down…… (Auburn outranked USC, to start 2006, when USC finsihed in the Top 2 the last 3 consecutive years!) How in the f@ck does that make any sense? Auburn did beat #6 LSU in week 4, but this team would lose by 17+ to Arkansas and (9-4) Georgia. The only major OOC win the SEC had in 06 was beating 10-3 #14 Cal by Tennessee, who they beat at home by 17. However this overrated the heck of the rankings as well as Cal went 9-4 finished #24 in 05, and magically started #9 in 06, so when they beat “#9” Cal, Tenn shot up to #12 just in time to play Florida. Tennessee would finish with 4 losses and their only quality win being over Cal. The SEC actually went 8-5 vs P5 in OOC, course their 8 wins came against teams that went a combined 48-53 (38-50 outside of Cal), while their 5 loses to actually quality teams the SEC GOT BLOWN THE F@CK OUT by 5 teams that went 56-10, and the SEC got outscored 66-205…… So basically you have 1 SEC team of quality from year over year, and 1 SEC team win a quality OOC game and then an absolute sh!tshow overrated garbage leading to Florida claiming they beat 3 Top 10 teams in 2 Top 15 teams, when in reality the teams they beat teams that finished #3, #15, and #24, with their best win coming against a 11-2 team who didn’t have a single Top 10 win and only beat a #15 and #24 team. How does 06 LSU outrank 06 Louisville by 5 spots, when Louisville went 12-1 and beat #10 WV and #12 Rutgers aka better wins than anyone LSU beat?

The Auburn Family is amazing, War Eagle.
Very good documentary
It was pretty shocking how low scoring this game was. I thought both sides were way too loaded on offense for either team to slow down. I really thought it was going to be 49-42 or 51-49 or something that crazy.

The front 4 for Auburn and the linebackers were elite run stuffers and good pass rushers with a young Corey lemonier and dee Ford and Zach Clayton is forgotten and Marcus mcneill the safety could lay the wood and etheridge held things down enough in secondary

The best rushing team in sec history at the time and as great as 2013 was at wide receiver I would rather have 2010 offensive with cam and the best running back recruit in the country Michael dyer who broke bo Jackson rushing record as a freshman
I’m still upset dyer ruined his career but glad we got tank now!

Veteran offensive line but one of them got drafted in the 5th round the defense giving up 40 points per game Cam had to run for over a 1000 yards that season to escape the defense and also throw for over a 1000 yards Cam did it all that's why he was not only voted unanimously the best player in college football that year but was also voted the best college football player ever point blank period

Rip Lutz #43 ! And shout out to Kodi Burnes who played qb the year before but noticed how good cam was and put his pride to the side and became a wideout, and ended up scoring the first TD of the National championship game against oregon. He deserved that one definetly, but the whole team played a part in every singls aspect of the game

Alabama was so afraid of Cam Newton returning the next year, so I believe they started all the bad things that was said about Cam. I think Cam might would've returned but he knew all that crap would go on the whole next year.

Sorry Pugh, I left the uga game when they got up 2 tds; ran all the way down wire road to Ridgewood to watch the rest at the house. heard our 2nd td as I was running by the tailgates and the game tying td two seconds after I turned the tv on at my place.
