K-State had Three missed field goals (nine points), a sure touchdown that was tipped into an interception (seven points), a fumble that gave Auburn a short field (three points), an ugly Waters pick while rolling out in the fourth, and a handful of other uncharacteristic miscues that allowed Auburn to sneak away with a win.

Meanwhile, Auburn posted all of 3.1 yards per carrywith a long of only 17.

In your opinion, has Auburn drastically improved on defense, offense, and special teams since playing K-State?

Yes but in reading your post, it appears that KSU is teh team needing to do the improving.

Are you saying we didn't have any missed opportunities that game? We played a flawless game, only to sneak out a W?

Yup. Auburn didnt miss on any points either. it was a one way street when it comes to this argument.

You named a few, what are the other 5 not worthy of mention?

Maybe K-State is way better than you think?
Maybe K-State is particularly well suited to troubling Auburn in a way most schools are not
Maybe K-State was incredibly pumped for that game?
Maybe Auburn players didn't get much sleep after being Hotel raided?
Maybe Auburn beats a hypothetical K-State that didn't miss any point opportunities because they make different calls on offense to react to the different situation?
Maybe Auburn has motivation from last year for LSU they lacked for K-State
Maybe K-State is better than LSU


Should I continue or are you sufficiently frothy?

No LSU fan ever needs to riducule another team for playing down to their competition. We do that all the time.

A win at K-State on a Thursday night is impressive. I don't care how you got it done.

AU left 24 points on the field. Kstate left 16. AU led about 54/60 minutes.

AU should have won by more.

Don't need any improvement from that to beat LSU this year.

You do realize winning @ KSU is a big deal right? many have ventured there only to return with a L.
