A lot of it probably has to do with being down 21-0, a team like Auburn isn't used to getting punched in the mouth like that.

i don't really think that's it, we've been down like this a couple times this year and still played with fire. i just see no fire, i haven't seen any since the start of the game. it's like they've been just going through the motions since the first snap.

i think the off week might have actually hurt us, we were in a rhythm playing 11 in a row and they've lost it in the off week.

If you can get some momentum going before the end of the half, you have a fighting chance since you get the ball first after halftime. You need a big play.

24-0, 7 more points will probably ice it. I bet BSU and TCU are cheering their heads off right now.

i'm not willing to concede this game yet, we've been down and came back a couple times this year. unless we're down by 10+ halfway through the 4th quarter, i'm not going to count Auburn out.

It's still not over at 24-7. Plenty of time left.

Greg McElroy already has almost 300 yards passing and the 1st half isn't over yet, didn't realize he was that good of a QB!

Auburn's pass defense is horrendous.

He's a terrific college QB. His stats just don't show it normally because Bama always has a top-notch running game and they don't pass the ball a lot. If they passed the ball more he probably could have been a guy who throws for 300+ yards every week.

lol, yeah, he's not THAT good, our pass defense is just beyond terrible and they're picking us apart there.

[Batman1980]

Dang the Tide is already driving again, should be 31-7 right before the half, even with Auburn getting the ball first they won't win unless their defense steps up.

[Moviefan1203]

Auburn isn't done yet, game saving play by the defense.

[toxsic]

not sure why they didn't look at that "incompletion". should have been a catch if you look at the replay.

[ChadFL]

Alabama has almost 300 more total yards. Auburn is very lucky it's only 24-7.

It should be 35-0, too bad it's not, will give Auburn hope coming out of the tunnel after half-time.

[ChadFL]

Here comes Auburn. 24-14 game now.

[Batman1980]

Kickoff out of bounds helps, Alabama just needs to sustain offense and get a touchdown on this drive. Wow what a shot on 3rd down!

[fatediesel]

Auburn is going to win this game by at least 10.

Not when wide open receivers drop passes on Cam Newton like that on 3rd down, time for Auburn to punt.

I really thought Auburn was going to score there and completely take the crowd out of the game, but sounds like they blew a chance. Maybe Alabama can win this thing.
