All I heard about Auburn's defense before the Iron Bowl was

...how much they sucked.
They didn't suck. Their defense kicked arse. Shut down Ingram. No one else even came close to doing that.
Plus their offense put 20+ on the best defense in the country (IMO).
Very impressed with Auburn and fully expect them to improve every year under Chizik.

Agreed. There going to be scary in the coming years...

When you have 13 days to gameplan to stop one person, it is usually beneficial. Just sayin. They played a great game... but they should have, and didn't have any excuse not to. 13 days to prepare for us while we had 4 days to prepare for them. They did a fantastic job of executing their gameplan.

Good game and they shut down the run but I am not impressed with a few trick plays....

Same could be said for Saban and his D against LSU. He still needed home field advantage with the officiating! Potes currere sed te occulere non potes. 
But I have to give it to Aub and Chiz, they had a good game plan. Noticed no one was blocking the Aub LB #15 the whole running game?
Never saw any adjustments made during the game from Al Bama's O. Staff

they completely sucked dick against LSU in all 3 phases of the game. Its all about match ups.

They look solid but the refs cost us two catches over the middle for first downs and set picks all freaking day long. Also the lack of review (by design or not) cost us another first down on the first drive.
Again, AllBarn did look very solid and congrats on a great Iron Bowl and an better looking future.

Auburn had a good game plan on offense and defense coming off the bye week. The bye week was also good for their players lack of depth. They were fired up for the game. In the end when it was all on the line we made the big plays to win the game.
The problem for Auburn is if they want to have great seasons they would really do themselves a big favor by not waiting to use the iron bowl for their bye week.

Their goal was to shut down the running game. They pretty much did that but there were receivers running wide open all over the field yesterday. I think McElroy could have had a bigger game. Maybe the pressure of playing in the Iron Bowl got to him. You got the W. That's all that matters.

I forgot about the two throws defended by the referees.

Taking nothing away from Auburn, their D played well, but when an offense is too one dimensional it does make for much simpler preparation on defense.

After the first quarter the scoring went 26-7 in favor of Bama. How is that not adjusting?

put 8 in the box and force us to pass. it was a great plan, but thankfully mcelroy/julio showed up.

They still suck. Alabama's offense just made them look good.

He had a great game, threw at a .678 percentage, two TDs, and no INTs. I don't know what kind of rating that is, but that's about 8% better than his average.
Could it have been better...sure but I think it was his second best game of the year.
