Earlier this week, we addressed the status of other Auburn athletics programs — Monday it was baseball, and yesterday we talked basketball. Now, while we had the best years in each of those sports in some time, we all know where most Auburn fans’ bread is buttered.
Auburn football has always been king, and so the success of the program on the gridiron oftentimes guides the mood and direction of the rest of the athletics department. And while the last decade has been one hell of a roller coaster, it can be argued that Auburn football has never had more success or had as much stability as it does right now.
