• Auburn becomes the first team since Georgia Tech in 1990 to win a national title after starting the season ranked outside the top 20.
• Cam Newton is the 9th Heisman winner to play in the national championship game in the last 11 years.
• Auburn's win, coming on the heels of Alabama's title last year, marks the first time in 70-plus years that two different teams from the same state are crowned national champs in consecutive seasons.
• The SEC improves to 7-0 in BCS title games and has now won the the last five.
