cptau 169 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Is Cam Newton the only Auburn football player to have started and never played in a losing game for Auburn? He only played one season, started all 14 games, but all were wins. Can anyone match that? Perhaps there may have been some players on the early undefeated teams, but I think Cam may be it for the last 50 years or so. Perhaps Michael Dyer at the moment, but he may not have started or played in every 2010 game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Michael Dyer at the moment, but he may not have started or played in every 2010 game. I would think there'd have to be somebody from previous undefeated squads. Now, if you said, "Only player to be undefeated in every Auburn game played AND started", you might have something there. As for Dyer and other youngsters, their streak will most likely break at some point, as much as I hate to admit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What, you don't agree with the War Blogler that "Auburn should and could go undefeated in every sport, every year (if you don't think the same, you're not a realist, you're a pessimist)"?

If you were a Junior/Senior starter in 1993 and 1994 then you did not lose any games either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mind remembered 10-0-1, but it was 9-1-1 with a loss to Bama. But still a good stretch for a two year starter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps there may have been some players on the early undefeated teams, but I think Cam may be it for the last 50 years or so. Perhaps Michael Dyer at the moment, but he may not have started or played in every 2010 game. 1913 team went 8-0 1914 team went 8-0-1 (and didn't give up a single point all season!) 1915 team won the first 6 games (again, didn't give up a single point in those games) before losing the last 2. So, conceivably a sophomore on the 1913 team could have started 23 games straight without losing: Link 1957 team went 10-0 1958 team went 9-0-1 A junior on the 1957 team could have started 20 straight games without losing.
