Hardly.

One "bounce" truly went Auburn's way. Alabama dominated the first half through the run game (mainly because Auburn had Ken Carter and Jeff Whitaker in at defensive tackle due to the suspensions) and passing game (which everyone did anyways), and still couldn't seal the deal. Auburn proceeded to get Nick Fairley back on the field, along with Mike Blanc and Michael Goggans, and whip some arse in the second half.

Cam Newton was an unstoppable force, and it didn't matter what you took away from him - he'd find a way to win.


The bouncing fumble that went 20 yards in a straight line? Or the one that laid on the ground at our offensive lineman's feet that was so close to him he couldn't see it.

Mark Barron hurting his arm, trying to play with one arm preventing him from picking off the TD to start the 2nd half like we'd seen his entire career?

Face it, Auburn was the 2nd best team on the field that day. But the best team doesn't always win.

The one that bounced 20 yards in a straight line. The other wasn't a fluke play, just a heads up play by Nick Fairley on both accounts.

This looks like an excuse.

I have one as well. What about Nick Fairley missing some of the first half with a shoulder injury? What about AJ Greene being out at right tackle? What about the two suspended Auburn players, as previously mentioned, that missed the first half, forcing true freshmen in to play half of the snaps? Should I stop here or keep going?

South Carolina and LSU must've been the second best teams on the field against Alabama as well, huh?

So our defensive lineman running down your RB a causing a fumble is just bad luck on alabama's part?

Your OL being unable to block Fairley and your QB failing to secure the ball is just bad luck?

That's cute.

Somebody turned the game off after the 1st quarter.
