Did it make you happy or sad? I know quite a few Bama fans that hated Auburn won that way. I was happy. I love the fact that Aubie will be so highly ranked when we play them. I also think it will make our team even more pumped for the game. But how did you feel?

I would have rather clinched the West with a UGA win. Plus, I hate Auburn and everything about them.

I was at the game and it was electric.


I wanted AU to win for two reasons. 1) Beating them at 10-1 and being ranked high will be more fun 2) I wanted to party with some happy AU sorostitues that night.

A boog loss would have been nice to cement Bama in the West, but the bright side is it will make their SOS higher.

You can't get sad after watching a play like that.

It was a hell of a moment in football. I watched it out in the Junction tailgating, and even then, it was an experience listening to the whole Junction gasp and start yelling.

I'll be honest, and this may sound crazy, but I think it was a perfect Saturday for Alabama. A huge, emotional win for Auburn combined with a sluggish Alabama win might be just what Alabama needs.

Hopefully that translates into an overconfident Auburn thinking that they're "destined" to win, and an Alabama team with a chip on their shoulder from watching game film of themselves derping around for four quarters.

I really liked what I read from some of the Alabama players after the MSU game. No one was happy.

I never want Auburn to win. Unless their winning would cement Bama winning the west.

That play was not good for Alabama. An AU loss to UGA would've given us the West. Instead, we now have zero margin of error and a loss to AU could knock us all the way down to the friggin Capital One Bowl. I get the intangible aspects of it but a bird in hand is better than two in the bush and we'd have a trophy right now if it weren't for that play.

I would have liked to clinch the West, but I didn't care too much either way.

Couldn't have cared less. I wanted Georgia to win, but it didn't really make me happy or sad. Shocked, along with I'm sure everybody else watching that, was the only real emotion I had. Would've been nice to already have the West locked up, but we have to win all our games to get to where we want to be anyway.

I was excited in the moment bc it was a pretty miraculous play. It's one of those plays that you know you will see on all-time lists for years to come.

Today, I wish the UGA DB had batted the ball down so we would have clinched, but I can definitely understand wanting Auburn to be highly ranked for the IB. It's gonna be an awesome build up to the game this year.

I'm never happy when Auburn wins, I hope they lose every game they ever play.
