The Auburn Tigers can hang their hat on one thing from their 5-7 finish during the 2025 College Football season: they were the best of any losing team during the regular season, at least according to Gig Em Gazette's Graham Harmon.
While doing one final SEC Football power rankings from the season, with every team from the "It Just Means More" conference sitting on the sidelines ahead of the CFP title game, Harmon ranked Auburn at No. 11, ahead of the South Carolina Gamecocks, Florida Gators, Arkansas Razorbacks, Mississippi State Bulldogs, and Kentucky Wildcats.
