Auburn had their back against the wall, and fought back against bubba.

Our left tackle allowed so much pressure it was ridiculous.

Van girder knew it, and threw blitz after blitz at him.

That was a fricking war. Much respect to the plainsmen after that game. They didn't play like that the other games.,

Another easily overlooked fact:

We run a base offense, allowing them to run their base d. They ran a good bit of nickel and dime early in the season because of the teams they faced. They brought in the big boys for the LSU game.

You can't be an honest LSU fan and not give auburn props for playing lights out.

this.

Chiz and gang deserve some credit for getting the D to show up emotionally and compete

The funny thing is that many on this board sit here and scream about how tough the SEC is and all road games are battles....

then when it happens that way everyone wants to point fingers about how one team didnt win the way they should have and tear them down....what a fricking joke some folks are

Thx. I wasn't on the Rant a lot yesterday, but LSU fans have been very gracious towards Auburn regarding the game.

I think this was LSU's first SEC road game against a division rival and they played that way. There's nothing wrong with that. I think it will help both teams in the long run as they can build off the good and the bad going forward.

BTW, I feel like the Tiger rivalry is on its way back and Im glad we won't be stuck at the bottom with the Grinders much longer
