Did Auburn not have big breakdowns on defense in 2009, 2011 and 2012? That's typically how big plays are made, right? Alabama has made big plays against Auburn due to blown assignments and such, too...
The difference is that Alabama didn't need those to win or keep the game close. Auburn depended on huge plays to compete.

So yes, you needed those mistakes. And you still lost

Alabama will, however, need them this year, and likewise with Auburn. I expect big plays from both teams.

All IMO, of course.

Bama was up 24 fricking points! Evidently they did need big plays early to compete, because they didn't do jack shite the remainder of the game.
