Also if you want to call a returner running by the tacklers luck then every return ever was just luck. Plus the Bama game wouldn't have been over even if we didn't return it for the TD.
Auburn executed better. The linemen did not execute proper field goal return coverage. Two of Auburn's touchdowns were gifts: the Nick Marshall touchdown run and Sammie Coates touchdown reception. Both were the result of an Alabama player taking himself out of the play. Auburn also gave Alabama a gift with the 99 yard touchdown. Auburn caught more breaks than Alabama, and that's the bottom line. Auburn made Alabama work hard for 3 of Alabama's touchdowns. Auburn got 3 on plays that Alabama fricked up. I can't fault Auburn for taking advantage of Alabama's various miscues, but I'm not convinced that Auburn was the better team that day or is the better team now.

If a UGA fan said that, about any game, I'm sure you'd be one of the first to call us crybabies or moral victors or some other nonsense.

Only bama beats bama.

If you mean if the entire field goal unit got caught with their pants down then yes, they didn't execute proper field goal return coverage.
