Second quarter, Ole Miss 3-0

We're discussing the second quarter of Auburn's game at Ole Miss.

RUSHING IN FIRST QUARTER:
AU -- 7 carries, 3 yards
UM -- 8 carries, 50 yards

TOTAL OFFENSE IN FIRST QUARTER:
AU -- 14 plays, 28 yards
UM -- 16 plays, 68 yards

  • OLE MISS 3, AUBURN 0: Josh Shene 33-yard FG. Auburn's defense was caught on a blitz mid-way through the drive and gave up a 19-yard run. That was the key play.

  • OLE MISS 10, AUBURN 0: Shay Hodge 3-yard catch from Jevan Snead. The drive started with less than two minutes remaining on the UM 22. Auburn's defense simply yielded ground at a surprising rate, giving up long runs and passes.

It seems Auburn only wins whenever the are playing a quarterback thats worse than their own.

Slaughter has GOT to fair catch that punt before it rolls down like that.

12:26 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

One thing to keep in mind regarding the rushing stats - the fumble counts as a rush of -10

And then there is about 20 hidden yards in that punt that is allowed to roll down to the 10

Q just said on the radio that we haven't attempted a pass of more than 20 yards yet. Which goes directly in the face of what CTT said in the pregame. Things like that are what make me think we don't have any kind of plan on offensive.

Our only hope is we run back the second half kickoff, give up a field goal, and then run that kickoff back, giving us the 14-13 win, that's the only way i see us winning this one, hopefully someone that wants to coach and some guys that want to play at AU are watching and see that they can come in and have nowhere to go but up.

Auburn had 3 timeouts and the ball at almost mid-field with 34 seconds on the clock. Not only did they not use a timeout to try to get in field goal range, they snapped the ball with one second left so Kodi could throw a 5 yard pass...

What in the hell is Tuberville thinking?
