Furman @ Auburn, 2nd half

Welcome to the second half of this scintillating game.

Please enjoy.

REFRESHER: Auburn led 42-3 at halftime.

  • Furman first possession: TOUCHDOWN. 6 run. They were stopped on third down, punted, PPL fumbled the punt and Furman took control at the AU 6. Oops.
      AUBURN 42, FURMAN 10


  • Furman second possession: TOUCHDOWN. 19 run. Drive was prefaced by an Eric Smith fumble. Oops.
      AUBURN 42, FURMAN 17


  • Auburn third possession: TOUCHDOWN. Eric Smith 2 run. Drive covered 81 yards in 9 plays.
      AUBURN 49, FURMAN 17


  • Auburn fourth possession: TOUCHDOWN. Anthony Gulley 13 run. Drive covered 62 yards in 8 plays. Auburn now has 592 yards of offense.
      AUBURN 56, FURMAN 17

  • Furman fifth possession: TOUCHDOWN. Some dude scored on a 1 run. Drive covered 69 yards in 6 plays. Yummy.
      AUBURN 56, FURMAN 24

  • Auburn fifth possession: TOUCHDOWN. Anthony Gulley 50 run. Drive covered 61 yards in 3 plays.
      AUBURN 63, FURMAN 24

  • Furman sixth possession: TOUCHDOWN. Some Dude 17 pass from Another Dude. Drive covered 71 yards in 10 plays.
      AUBURN 63, FURMAN 31

We need to be careful. Furman could come back and get it within 5 touchdowns.

But before anyone gets too upset by recent developments, may I remind you at the same point in our 2008 Homecoming game against UT-Martin, the score was tied 20-20, and we had managed only one offensive TD and had around 200 yards of total offense.

Obviously this game is going to end much closer, but we don't have nearly the talent we had back then.

Hated to let them get that TD, but their first string offense is better than our defensive scrubs, so they deserved it.

On the bright side, midway through the 4th we were outgaining them roughly 500-120. Those last two TD drives (which accounted for 140 of their 266 yards) came against a defense almost exclusively composed of non-scholarship scout teamers.

There are a LOT of bad teams out there this year, not just Michigan.

Neither the Big12 nor the Big10+1 will end up with more than 5 bowl eligible teams from the looks of it.

It now appears that the Big12 CG will feature Texas and Kansas State. One will likely be undefeated and ranked no lower than #3, and the other will have at least 4 losses, including one to a Sunbelt team (on the road, no less) and another by 52 points.

If he had run Ingram in the first half we would have won by 17

We fumbled a punt on the 6 which led to one of their TDs. We also fumbled again, so 14 points off turnovers. We were playing people I've never heard of.

They did intercept it FSJ. And without Jefferson, you're probably right about the outcome. But we'll never know since the officials, EVEN WITH REPLAY, blew the call.

Great job by the first team today. 2nd half backup play leaves a lot to be desired but it was a good day for us. Got everything we needed to get accomplished in the first half and then we rested the starters.

It's officially Grorgia week and I HATE THE BULLDOGS!!!!!!!!

6:51 PM

The int call was one that no matter what the officials ruled it would be upheld because there was nothing definitive either way, IMO.

We got jobbed in the first quarter when the replay booth was out...

Only score you need to pay attention to is 42-3 in the first half. I can probably count on my hand the number of players that played in the second half that will play against UGA next week.

BTW, any early reviews on Washington at safety?

Looked pretty definitive to me, FSJ, but I agree, don't think it makes a difference. LSU looked beat before that. They did have General Lee at QB after all.

WAR EAGLE, Senor Ron! And welcome back!

Here's all you need to know about the last 2 TDs the AU defense gave up:

Robert Hill
A. Richardson
Ikeem Means
Derrick Lykes
Woody Parramore
Jonathon Evans

Those were the five AU players who made tackles in those last two possessions. And Furman's WR beat one-on-one coverage by Chris Humphries on the final TD.

We emptied the benches, I'd say.

We currently have 74 players on scholarship.

According to AuburnTigers.com, the following scholarshipped players did NOT participate today: Donte Aycock, Zach Clayton, Drew Cole, Nosa Eguae, Zac Etheridge, Harris Gaston, Andre Harris, Cam Henderson, Adam Herring, Onterrio McCalebb, Mike McNeil, Clint Moseley, Spencer Pybus, Tyrick Rollison, Darrell Roseman, Aairon Savage, Ryan Shoemaker, Vance Smith, and Barrett Trotter. Assuming that I didn't miss anyone, that makes 19 players on scholly that didn't play today, leaving 54 who did.

According to the final stats, 71 different Auburn Tigers saw action today.

71-54 = 17 walkons.

I'd be surprised if Furman played that many non-scholly guys.

Didn't know Herring was hurt?

Woody Parramore is a friend of mine's son. He's a senior EE major who walked on this year after not playing for the last 3 years, and when he did play, he was a reserve at Trinity. I'd say we dug waaaaay back on the bench this week.

How does a semi high profile team not have a night game in 2 years. Makes me glad we play in the land of great tv contracts... the SEC

Not only did Woody play - he was our 2nd leading tackler, tied with Johnathon Evans with 5.

Ikeem Means led all tacklers with 6. Dee Ford and Ashton Richardson were right behind with 4.

That pretty much tells you what you need to know about the game today. That and Davis Hooper picking up some rushing yardage at the end.

Every Furman player would have had to walk on to play at Auburn.

Just got back from AU. hated to give up points to Furman, but it was out of hand at the half. several players looked good though.

I have not watched any of the other state team this year. I'll prolly catch them next week if I have time.

Colt McCoy took a huge step toward the Heisman today. I think it is between him and Tebow.

I thought Stallworth went down with a knee injury?
