Hey everyone. We're watching -- and commenting on -- the second half of Auburn's game at Louisiana State University.
- LSU POSSESSION ONE: TOUCHDOWN. Brandon LaFell 17 pass from Jordan Jefferson. PAT kick good. Drive covered 45 yards in four plays.
- AUBURN POSSESSION ONE: FIELD GOAL. Wes Byrum 24 yards. Drive covered 53 yards in nine plays.
- LSU POSSESSION TWO: PUNT.
- AUBURN POSSESSION TWO: PUNT. Auburn burrowed into LSU territory, but the drive faded fast once it crossed mid-field.
- LSU POSSESSION THREE: TOUCHDOWN. Russell Shepard 70 run. PAT kick good. That's a wrap, kids.
I'm no longer updating this in real-time because, well, I have to write and I know how this one is going to end.

No Drops Tigers
ReplyDeleteThis is bad........
ReplyDeleteI was going to post first, but I held up and didn't hit the enter key, got sacked and fumbled.
ReplyDeleteIt seems offensive coordinators love picking on a certain DB.
ReplyDeleteWE SUCK!!! I'm A FAIR WEATHER FAN ACCORDING TO STEVE!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell, that didn't take long.
ReplyDeleteHere's a positive thought - plenty of room for recruits to come in and contribute.
RK ... looks like they got both of 'em on this drive.
ReplyDeleteWell the good news is we get to see quickly if AU's offense is going to do anything in the 2nd half, or if we can all just go to bed.
ReplyDeleteIt could be worse, that's positive, right?
ReplyDeleteare we going to score?
ReplyDeleteJet,
ReplyDeleteI had just typed that right as the TD pass was thrown.
They're only down 24.
ReplyDeleteMalzahn's offense averaged more than that at one time.
Not much RK
ReplyDeletethanks for the positive influence Jay
ReplyDeleteJay G. for the win
ReplyDeleteWhy the F is Todd still in the game? It's over. Let's see something else. I hope the media rips him.
ReplyDeleteBen Tate is averaging 53 yards per carry, according to the graphic.
ReplyDeleteyeah, Jay, but that was for a game, not a half. thanks for the positivity, though!
ReplyDeleteJet,
ReplyDeleteYou think we'd run him more at that pace.
TATE!
ReplyDeleteBob Davie: "trickeration."
ReplyDeleteAm I a fair weather fan to point out he's the worst ESPN announcer on their rotation? Steve?
Hey Jay, why dont you do a Mitch Albom and finish your article now with the score as is. Its not unethical. wink.
ReplyDeleteMore good news- Ben Tate is still a badass
ReplyDeleteAt least we know Ben Tate won't quit.
ReplyDeleteWell, FSU played as badly as we did against UNC the other night and was down 18 points at this point in the game, but turned it around and won.
ReplyDeleteI can dream, can't I?
Ben Tate is a bad man.
ReplyDeleteWill be doing that on Sundays.
Good for him.
Freep- That's definitely dreaming.
ReplyDeletetodd pitches the ball as soon as he gets it, is it just me, or is that not the purpose of the option, where are any playmakers
ReplyDeleteCan't the crowd see the no-huddle and not just sense it?
ReplyDeleteEric Smith is money on that route.
ReplyDeleteTodd is just "fine." See????
ReplyDeleteNice catch and throw to ESmith.
ReplyDeletei wonder if sacred as he** is on the bench for this half? keep running tate.. improve your draft status
ReplyDeleteThough, technically, the wheel route has been around Auburn for many recent years.
ReplyDeleteDem crazy cajuns are blind drunk.
ReplyDeletefreep, fed-ex me what u are drinking, we may keep it close like Ut did against us, its called garbage points, eric smith catches like he hits people in the back of the head.....wait for it....lights out..lol
ReplyDeleteAll Kodi does is tell them that we're not passing.
ReplyDeleteBurns at QB = D knows it's a run play.
ReplyDeleteDoubled our offensive output from the first half already.
ReplyDeleteWhy not just give Tate the ball 4 times and see if he can't get it done?
ReplyDeleteI hate the wildcat.... Bust up the rythem
ReplyDeleteyes, i refuse to call him fast as he** until he proves it again
ReplyDeletewe cant force it...ughhhh
ReplyDeleteWell that started out promising.
ReplyDeleteJust attempting to find some reason for positivity, PDWT.
ReplyDeleteAvoid the shutout.
ReplyDeleteYay points!
ReplyDeleteWAY TO GO BYRUM!
ReplyDeleteNo shut out..... That's a positive.....
ReplyDeleteno shut out here... we can move the ball...
ReplyDeleted 3 and out lets get to 10 in the next 3 minutes...
I don't hate the wildcat, I hate the personnel they have running it. Not the player individually, but the fact that they have the wrong one running it.
ReplyDeleteByrum is still money this year, so there's that.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only person born and raised in Alabama who hates "Sweet Home Alabama?"
ReplyDeletewareagle rk, god i know, the whole friggin conference knows when he is in he is running the inside run...its soooo predictable, what about that trick play with travante stallworth
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about Tate. I will take him over Ingram any day.
ReplyDeleteNot watching the game right now, just following along on the internets. . .did LSU still have their 1st string defense in on that drive?
ReplyDeleteScottcoats ...
ReplyDeletenope, I'[m with you.
Well, this ensures we won't see Erin Andrews again this year. Irrelevancy blows in so many ways.
ReplyDeletenot to sound stupid but we can win this game.... LSU's o is stoppable if we show up... O needs to show up..
ReplyDeleteNext time,,, keep running ben and stop getting cute with the wildcat...
Todd looked good on that drive. Bringing in Kodi killed the momentum. Why not run Tate there instead?
ReplyDeleteI hate it as well from years of having to play it in cover bands.
ReplyDeleteBecause Kodi is a leader. He's an Auburn man. He deserves it.
ReplyDeleteAt least, that's what we're told.
The D needs to force a 3 and out.
ReplyDeleteyeah, I don't think Kodi is the answer at Wildcat. Seems to me we'd be better with a speed option or a punishing runner option.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm on defense, I don't fear Kodi throwing--he's not good.
What are we hoping to accomplish there?
ReplyDeletemaybe one of these upbacks will fumble
ReplyDeleteJUST KICK THE DAMN BALL OUT OF BOUNDS IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO THAT CRAP~
ReplyDeletewhen Sweet Home Alabama come out, they played it at all the parties in Auburn and back then it still belonged to the whole state
ReplyDeleteNow it is a sick bama song
Kodi is a leader. He's an Auburn man. He deserves it.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget that. It's important.
stop the pooch kick . lsu almost in fg position already
ReplyDeleteAt the very least The Bull has come to play tonight.
ReplyDeletestan white agrees, pooch kick equals dumb ass, hey lets give them the ball at mid-field, wtf, boulware...mmmmm
ReplyDeleteSo why hasn't El Toro been playing again?
ReplyDeletefannin is the perfect wildcat..
ReplyDeletehe can throw
What was the play that killed the drive? That's right. The wildcat. IT DOESN'T work on the goal line. TATE works on the goal line. C'mon Gus. Wake up man!
ReplyDeleteScott, right now I'm thinking "That Smell" is more appropriate.
ReplyDeleteHey, just remembered - you know where Skynrd was scheduled to play the night their plane went down? ?
Louisiana State University.
Coincidence? I think not.
Kodi is a leader. He is an Auburn man. He deserves it.
ReplyDeleteGot it.
Our coverage sucks.. the upbacks cannot run one back
ReplyDeleteGreat catch by R.R.
ReplyDeletewar eagle girl, i agree, wife and i still yell war damn eagle,
ReplyDeletewhat a throw and catch.
ReplyDeleteanyone surprised we gave that up?
ReplyDeleteAlmost perfect coverage.... Almost
ReplyDeletewhen exactly did TV commentators decide they needed to be funny and part of the "story."
ReplyDeletePlease just describe the game to me.
that was a hail mary, pooch kick, pooch kick, pooch kick, pooch kick, pooch kick, pooch kick, pooch kick
ReplyDeleteplease tell walt its ok to put your arms up in the air to knock down a pass- THAT is not illegal
ReplyDeleteD is playing well considering
ReplyDeleteAhh, well. We still got Furman, right?
ReplyDeleteIt'll get better. It must.
Bear ... that was just a great throw and catch ... Walt had him buttoned up.
ReplyDeleteGus gets an F- for game plan tonight.
ReplyDeleteThat was just a nice catch by Randle.
ReplyDeleteCarter is playing well. The Bull is playing well. Defense is not playing poorly. Just NO assistance from O and consistently bad field position
Draw
ReplyDeleteor screen.
If I had a choice - I would take 3rd & 8
ReplyDeleteF.U Alabama
ReplyDeleteWar Damn Eagle
Go to hell LSU
F.U Alabama
War Damn Eagle
Ole Miss sucks too
Is that the song ya'll are referring to?
Look for the ball Thorpe!
ReplyDeleteOops, I suppose comparing AU's performance tonight to a tragic fatal plane crash is a little on the negative side.
ReplyDeleteMore positivity: I think Roof & Co. listened to our advice about loading up to stop the run and forcing Jefferson to beat us.
Unfortunately, he is.
Damn! Did it again!!!
Thorpe LOOK FOR THE BALL!!!
ReplyDeleteWho was that blazing on the QB? El Toro (again)????
Did Will Muschamp sneak back in as DC? Why will teh DBs not turn around?
ReplyDeleteThat was good coverage by Thorpe, just needs to go for the ball next time.
ReplyDeleteThat was lucky, Walt.
ReplyDeletebro- yeah, great throw and catch; but DBs should be taught to raise the arms when the ball approaches and/or when the WR puts his hands up. other than that, he was on his hip. now that poke-out was a GREAT play on the ball
ReplyDeleteLucky there
ReplyDeleteNice play by McFadden to knock the ball out.
ReplyDeleteWe caught a break there with Tolliver not holding on.
ReplyDeleteTime keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin
ReplyDeleteInto the future
boy, he got beat, but that was a helluva play by Walt.
ReplyDeleteThey tried to make that out as a good play - it wasn't
ReplyDeletePLEASE do not hit the punter
ReplyDeleteWell, be safe everybody. Time to ice the knee.
ReplyDeleteSlippin, slippin, slippin.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else get a kick out of watching a lost Pizza guy drive by 13 times?
ReplyDeletePPL was headed for the 50 yard line he wasn't going to be near that punt
ReplyDeleteNorm was the smart one ... he detached his retina so he wouldn't be able to watch this one.
ReplyDeleteok, next weekend, i have to go see my brother n law play his last regular season football game at 7 pm in Friday, that ends, drive to Montgomery, check in to hotel by mmmm. 1 am, get up by 7 am, head to auburn, park, tailgate, chug beers, watch that gem of a game, ole miss vs auburn at 11:30 am, then drive back to mobile, the 24 hours from hell, i cant wait....whooooeee....
ReplyDeleteMSU tried a fake punt on their own 20 and their runner falls down without being hit. wow
ReplyDeleteFeel better Sensi.
ReplyDeleteWR's have one catch all game.
ReplyDeleteoh by the way my next door neighbor at the game, is selling his bama tickets for $350.00 a piece, omg, but some bamer will but it, i will never sell my tickets to non-auburns fans, to hell with that
ReplyDeleteWhat is the purpose of Kodi being in on that last play?
ReplyDeleteMake that 14 times plus a 5 point turn in front of the house.
ReplyDeleteMcCalleb must be pretty hurt, havent seen him. eric smith has great hands
ReplyDeletewhat the heck is that spot...
ReplyDeletelast week with Ken they spotted the ball..
now its the knee
LOL Jet, well played.
ReplyDeletetempo
ReplyDeletego
ReplyDeletego
go
go
smith hobbling off the field
ReplyDeletewhy do I get the feeling that Jay is enjoying this? Please don't become PF
ReplyDeleteOO OO, RK. I know.
ReplyDeleteKodi is an Auburn man. He is a leader. He deserves it.
go
ReplyDeletego
go
go

Mario so nice to meet you...
ReplyDeleteI sold my SEC championship tickets to a 'Bama fan last year for a $1,000 profit - didn't bother me in the least.
ReplyDeleteTrott really needs to hold his blocks on swing passes.
ReplyDeleteTommy Trott couldn't block my grandmother.
ReplyDeleteShe's been dead for 20 yrs.
trott is the guy in wrestling that takes it off the top rope, they set him up alot...
ReplyDelete1st down..
ReplyDeletei am 1.5 bottles into some 2 buck chuck
we need to score quick ... we do nto have time for 18 play 14 min drives
ReplyDeleteI don't think FAH has played since he ran straight to the sidelines on a play he could have cut back inside for more yards.
ReplyDeleteIs that Up Chuck after the 2nd bottle goes down?
ReplyDeletewe will not throw. LSU knows this. i wont be surprised to see 8 or 9 in the box
ReplyDeleteroll the pocket and run
ReplyDeleteYour right RK
ReplyDeletewhy are we punting
ReplyDeletei was wrong. we will throw. we will throw it 15 yards out of bounds.
ReplyDeleteComplaints about the lack of Fanin involvement are reminiscent of last year. Why do our off coord not understand how productive the guy is and not get him the ball more?
ReplyDeletePositivity: Todd has completed 8 of his 12 pass attempts.
ReplyDeleteNegativity: Half of them have been for 1 yard or less.
Way to pack it in.
ReplyDeleteThat pump fake shook off the camera man with the coverage down the sideline. Once Todd pumped that camera guy wasn't making the play.
ReplyDeleteWow.
ReplyDeletehelp me out, does FAH=Fannin?
ReplyDeleteIf so, can someone explain?
Quack quack. Todd is just awful
ReplyDeleteI liked the Durst who didn't have a scholarship far better than the guy who has one.
ReplyDeletemccaleb = FAH = Fast as Hell
ReplyDeleteJust another ...
ReplyDeleteFAH = McCalebb ... when he was "fast as hell."
Now, he's the RB Formerly Known as FAH.
If FAH were Fanin (and not McCalebb) it would stand for Fumbles After Hits.
ReplyDeleteok, write it down:
ReplyDeleteDurst is the Bernie Madoff of our team. He got a scholarship and now he couldnt punt it out of a Cub Scout tent, he has been terrible. Great investment by his parents though.
todd threw it away..
ReplyDeleteif they have that much coverage down feild the QB draw should work every play..
We are 3 scores down. we do not have time to give LSU the ball
again why did we punt>>
ReplyDeleteflood gates open
ReplyDeleteI have officially lost hope now........
ReplyDeleteI have seen enough.
ReplyDeleteGood night
anybody want to buy some bama ticket?
ReplyDeletei love stan white, he wants to put the auburn isp network, he is a true fan and steve, an auburn man
ReplyDeleteLook good, this does not.
ReplyDeleteLSU clearly doesn't see using their hot shot FR QB as a "waste of redshirt."
ReplyDeleteJust saying...
even bramblett says the game is over on the radio! Way to keep the fan base on a positive note
ReplyDeleteI'll check everyone a little later, I'm going to go hang with the wife.
ReplyDeleteIf they put Todd back in now then we have ever reason to question Malz's sanity/competency
ReplyDeleteg'nite and war eagle.
ReplyDeleteIt's 2003 again alright.
ReplyDeleteeddie, the fun in wearing my mr. t outfit next week is dimming...
ReplyDeleteCaudle Time!
ReplyDeleteWar Eagle anyway!
ReplyDeleteYour never as good as you hope or as bad as you think...... We are a 7 - 5 team at best.
ReplyDeleteFreep- 2003 team was much better.
ReplyDeleteSeeing that last Ali add reminds me of the time Cassius Clay came to Auburn in the early 70's and spoke through the Symposium or at least that's what I think it was called. He was AWFUL. Ted Kennedy came that year too.... he was just as AWFUL!!!
ReplyDeleteKinda like tonight......awful!
I wouldn't blame you if you turned out now.
ReplyDeleteThanks for spending a large portion of your night here at the HABOTN. I'll turn out the lights in a bit.
OK, this is silly.
ReplyDeleteThat play has never worked for us...ever.
ReplyDeletetate needs 100 yds to beat ingram thats all i care about now, todd can go work in the coal mines for all i care...
ReplyDeleteOMG....Todd is still in
ReplyDeleteGlad I wasn't on the GUS BUS
Dude. Gus stinks. Apparently a base defense is all you need to do to beat him. Pathetic game by him and every coach. They deserve much blame.
ReplyDeleteWhat's even more embarrasing is our players holding up the 4 fingers when they've packed it in.
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying they should start next week, but let some of the young guys play.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jay for the positive influence...again
ReplyDeleteThat was perhaps the most dumbass play call I've seen Malzahn make so far. Just completely effin stupid. And what did that lead to? TD LSU!!!
ReplyDeleteOur coaches are the ones who are sucking. They should be embarrassed. They should be ashamed. For the third week in a row we are COMPLETELY NOT READY to play football. Boo Chizick. Boo Malzahn. Boo Roof. Boo Taylor. Boo Luper. Boo every coach and misc. staff. I'm absolutely appalled at how poorly coached we seem right now. Disgusting.
I do not get our o line... they are 3 year starters and should be crushing people...
ReplyDeleteSteve can take his "True Auburn Man" routine and shove it. If I hear it again, i'll blow a gasket.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me why Todd is still playing. A reward for fine play? Is it for next year? We're proving some point (beyond that we suck)? Why??
ReplyDeleteI disagree about the anti-Malzahn sentiment.
ReplyDeleteIt's obvious that when we have the players we can score a ton of points.
Todd's effectiveness disappeared after the first 4 games or so, just like last season. McCalebb losing a step hurt some more.
Better days are ahead, just probably not in a year ending in '9'.
Phred- Well said. We are not a good team, but we shouldn't be this bad.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I predicted we would win or lose big...
ReplyDeleteI was 50% right... the 50% I did not want.
Eddie ...
ReplyDeleteThe 4 Fingers is ridiculous. Once it was 24-0, it was obvious even to me that it was time to let Caudle get some snaps. There is nothing to be gained by Todd playing the rest of the night. Unless the goal is to get him a season ending injury. I'd rather lose 52-3 then expose the starters any further.
thank you eddie for feeling my pain..im delirous we have a 4th qtr...cant believe we have one qter left...feel like wilt chamberlin is gonna give me a months worth of proctology exams
ReplyDeleteIsn't it time to look to the future and let Caudle or Trotter or someone get some meaningful PT?
ReplyDeleteA Little Over The Top Don't You Think Eddie?
ReplyDeleteFreep- Is it not Malzahn's job to put players out there that have a chance to perform. Todd sucks and he keeps putting him out there. Caudle may not be great, but can he really be worse than the 10 points we have put up on the board the last 7 quarters. Malzahn is sucking it up big time right now and Nutt is laughing his ass off.
ReplyDeleteafter the ARK loss, i thought we would "get it together" at night in JHS. we then come out and stink it up big time. and tonight, I am seeing what I did last year... no passion and no fire. it is contagious also, especially on offense. one guy stops trying, then another, and then another. the defense seems to be trying a bit more
ReplyDeleteThis is the exact same staff who brought the team back from a 14-point early deficit against a good West Virginia team, and took a squad loaded with inexperience on the road and beat UT in Neyland.
ReplyDeleteThey didn't just go stupid over the past 3 weeks. They've just run out of the gris-gris they used for the first 5.
Loganville- Definietly, but so is Steve. Just trying to match him.
ReplyDeleteWe have a great running game .. right up to the poit we tryu to get cute.....
ReplyDelete
