Auburn wasn’t supposed to be playing the SEC Championship a year after going 3-9. A magical season, though, put the Tigers in position to win their first SEC title in three years.
Continuing my countdown of the top 20 Auburn football games of the last 20 years, I give you the Mizzou beat down.
No. 12 – 2013 SEC Championship – No. 3 Auburn vs. No. 5 Missouri
Date: December 8, 2013
Location: Georgia Dome – Atlanta, GA
Where I Watched: In Stadium
Final Score: Auburn 59 – Missouri 42
Why It Should Be Ranked Higher: Well, for starters, the victory combined with Ohio State’s loss to Michigan State later that night sealed a spot in the BCS National Championship Game for Auburn.
