AUght2win 6,816 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 This became true when we made the Final Four, but the CWS berth made me do the research. Auburn has now made each of the following: - College Football NC game - Men's Final Four - Women's Final Four - Men's Baseball World Series - Women's Softball World Series Only 5 teams in the history of American Collegiate Athletics have done so. Auburn, Texas, LSU, Oklahoma, and Georgia. SPREAD. THIS. STAT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUght2win 6,816 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Apologies. Left out Oregon. To be fair, they barely made the list. One Men's CWS appearance... in 1954. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUght2win 6,816 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 With Bruce at the helm and Casey Mize taken first overall in the MLB draft last year, it's very possible we could complete the triple crown with a #1 overall pick in football, baseball, and basketball. Only LSU and UCLA have done that one, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUght2win 6,816 Posted June 10, 2019 Author Share Posted June 10, 2019 Also, guys, I know we've won in more sports than those listed. But I'm not using an arbitrary qualifier. I'm listing the 5 biggest stages in all of NCAA competition. We have now made all 5. That's impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnEagle79 2,163 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Could we be entering another golden age in Auburn men's athletics? I have confidence that Bruce and Butch will keep this up. I'm cautiously optimistic with where our football team is heading with our young QB's and Gus backed in the corner. It's great to be an Auburn Tiger.

If Gus doesn't get good, then awesome, we have a new coach and a roster stacked with young talent. Agreed about the other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abw0004 10,104 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Don't forget our chess team is absolutely killing it too. Should have won the National Championship but a controversial call denied us. Led to a clearing of the benches of both sides. Two people suffered minor injuries. Definitely not a sport for the light-hearted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PowerOfDixieland 3,225 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 Jay Jacobs was as evil as Satan himself and there is nothing sarcastic in that statement. The darkness that he held our athletic department in should have been prosecuted criminally. Allen Greene's arrival should be a national holiday. THIS is the golden era of Auburn athletics.
