Default Auburn's coaching staff

Someone want to explain what the hell that was?

First of all, how many times on 2nd & 6/3rd & 5/etc. are you going to play your DBs 8 yards off the WRs. The difference between a FG and a TD is negligible, you should know they're only going to throw quick outs to bleed clock and get incrementally closer, WHY THE HELL wouldn't you dare them to beat you deep? Mind-boggling coverage calls.

And taking from 1:13 to :10 to get to your own 45 was terrible. Those play calls have to get to the QB a hell of a lot faster.

They let Satan escape with a win his team didn't deserve. Regardless, I'll still be rooting for them to beat Florida next week.

I agree %1000 about Auburn.

FLA vs ALA is the only college game this year that I'll watch in its entirety.

The only reason why they had a shot is because I put a dime on Bama.

Yay they won...I can't enjoy it.

That was maybe the worst 2 minute drill in the history of football.

how bad is Ingram hurt for next week?

ROLL FREAKING TIDE!

I don't know. If they play like they did today they could have Zombie Barry Sanders and Zombie Jerry Rice and it wouldn't matter.

I was for Bama but all I could think was what the F was Auburn thinking, especially in the last couple minutes of the game.

Yeah, but as bad as that may have been, you have to give the Auburn coaching staff credit for the first 5 minutes of the game as well. That was the only reason they were in the game in the first place. And in the end...no...the difference between a field goal and touchdown on Alabama's last drive was huge. With a field goal, Auburn only needs a field goal to win the game. They were playing a much better team and their coaching staff knew it...they did insane stuff the first 5 minutes and got away with it.
