Then the aubies don't like a fumble stolen in the inevitable scrum


my only issue with the fumble near the goal line, and I said this on our board, was that the guy who ended up with the ball wasn't even in the pile and that should have been a red flag. The guy who ended with the ball was standing up with just his arms in the pile.

I have said for two years that they need to start throwing players out that jump on the dog pile after there are clearly players on the ball.

The ball was lying on the ground, the Auburn player clearly put his arms out around encircling the space around the ball but he couldn't have had possession if an A&M player just reached in and picked it up.

Personally I was sure it was going to be Auburns ball and overturned. But I am not certain either way was a bad call. The whole "ruling on the field" is what swung it our way.
