Auburn beats Alabama

Alabama lost to Auburn.  How did this happen?  Bama had a lot of great top picks, but they managed to lose the game on a field goal attempt.

The Crimson Tide will have to think about this game for a long time.  Auburn would not go away.  Why didn't the Crimson Tide just keep running the ball with all of their great running backs?  

Special teams really played a big role in this game.  Auburn punted the ball really well trapping Alabama inside the 5 yard line.  Bama still found a way to drive down the field.

This game should have been over at half time.  Bama built a good lead, and you would think that they would have just turned to the running game to milk the clock.  It didn't work out that way.  Auburn fought back and found a way to win.

The special teams really broke down on that last play.  They were probably not even considering the missed and short field goal scenario.  What about those two Alabama players that had a chance to stop the Auburn player running back the ball?  The sideline was right there, but they could not manage to get him out of bounds.  This was really a fantastic last play that will be remembered for a long time.
