ON SEPT. 3, 2005, quarterback Brandon Cox was making his first start for the Auburn Tigers, who were coming off an undefeated season in which they finished No. 2 in the AP poll.
"It's still a game I have nightmares about," he said.
With running back Kenny Irons out, Auburn was short-handed in the ground game, meaning Cox would take on a greater role. And the Tigers' opponent that day, Georgia Tech, had a defense built to make an inexperienced quarterback's life difficult.
