Despite having four starters from the 2004 team selected in the first round of the National Football League draft, the 2005 Auburn Tigers football team finished the season with a 9-3 record, including a 7-1 record within the Southeastern Conference. The Tigers shared the SEC Western Division championship with LSU, but because the Bayou Bengals defeated Auburn 20-17 in overtime on October 22, did not advance to the conference Championship Game. Head coach Tommy Tuberville became only the third Tigers coach to lead Auburn to a fourth consecutive win over archrival Alabama when the Tigers defeated the Crimson Tide 28-18 at Jordan-Hare Stadium on November 19.
