The 2013 championship game featured the Auburn Tigers from the Western Division and the Missouri Tigers, a relatively inexperienced team in the final round of the conference. The Auburn Tigers carried forward the momentum and confidence they got from defeating Alabama in the SEC West title game, to see off the Missouri Tigers. On their way to the SEC crown, the Auburn Tigers not only caused a massive upset by beating their long standing rivals the Alabama Crimson Tide, they also marked one of the greatest turnarounds in NCAA history as they overcame their worst performance in sixty years they had put up in the previous season. In other words, they won the championship game only a year after they had chalked up a winless SEC record. Although the Tigers advanced to the BCS Bowl Game, they lost to the Florida State Seminoles.
