Auburn football fans react to remote possibility of AU playing in SEC title game

The thought of Auburn football playing in the SEC Championship game is not unlike any lingering ideas in one’s head about getting back together with an ex.

Sure, it could still make you think there is hope, but in reality, you should probably just move on from it. That said, the possibility of it happening still exists in the universe, as pesky as it is.
