Dameyune tossed his 5th TD pass, he had clocked up a professional record 611 yards. The Claymores would hang on to win 42-35 and Dameyune’s performance would send shock waves through the football world. So much so, that the Hall of Fame in Canton would take his jersey and helmet from that night and create a mini shrine for him (see below)!

As a senior though he really blossomed. He passed for an Auburn record 3,277 yards, completing 216 of 403 passes for 17 TD's and 13 INT's. He also ran for 312 yards, accounting for 78% of his team's offense. His performance earned him second team all-SEC honours behind Peyton Manning. With 9 wins, the Tigers had earned a berth in the SEC Championship Game against Tennessee and … Peyton Manning. Craig played a great first half in staking the Tigers to a 20-10 halftime lead. (The Cheddars turned up on their San Francisco hotel just in time to catch the 2nd half), but could only watch as Peyton lead a great 2nd half comeback to seal a 30-29 win. Despite the disappointment, Craig would end his Auburn career on a high note, engineering three 4th quarter scoring drives to pull out a 21-17 come from behind win over Clemson in the Parch Bowl.
