All They Did Was Win

As the 2008 football season came to a close, few could have guessed what lay just ahead for Auburn.

But with the hiring of an unlikely coach and the recruitment of a quarterback from a junior college in Texas, these Tigers took us on a wild, roller-coaster ride all the way to Glendale, Arizona, and a date in the desert to play for the National Championship.

Van Allen Plexico and John Ringer, Co-Hosts of the AU Wishbone Podcast, break down all the key games, controversies and critical moments of perhaps the greatest season in Auburn football history, including the epic, seemingly impossible “Camback” Iron Bowl and the BCS National Championship Game against Oregon, in play-by-play detail.

This is the complete story of Auburn’s 2010 National Championship run, as only the AU Wishbone can tell it.
