Auburn perceptions of 35-21
From watching the game, I gathered that the weather did, indeed, hurt Auburn's offensive gameplan in the first half (also caused Jaylon Denson to tear his ACL). LSU dominated the first half. However, in the second half, Auburn seemed to find a spark and made it a really close game. The score was 35-21, with a couple minutes left, with Auburn inside the 5 yard line. A penalty on Pat Miller caused us to go backwards. Auburn also seemed to find a little bit of identity on offense that was catapulted through the rest of the season.
Auburn lost, LSU won - but it wasn't a beatdown like RickyDaddy and some LSU fans like to boast. LSU caught Auburn at the right point in the season, because had the game been later in the year, Auburn wins. However, it wasn't, and we lost in the end.

After watching this team, I actually think the timing of this game was a good thing. After the attitude of last year and shaky start to this season, they needed that gut punch. I won't say a loss is a good thing, but if it had to happen, this was the time. Everyone who watched, knew coming out of that second half that Auburn was not the same team. They weren't going to quit like last year.
As for the game, Auburn started slowly and made some mistakes. LSU capitalized. It's pretty simple. Auburn was playing a style that didn't quite fit their personnel and adjustments were made to amend that situation.
