Auburn would have probably still won. Bama wasn't stopping our offense by the end of that game.

If we didn't have instant replay showing that a second was left, OT. There was a second left though so...when they lined up to kick, there were 4 possible outcomes: 1. Least likely-AU wins on a return of the kick, block or fumble. 2. 2nd least likely-Bama makes the 57 yarder with a rookie right off he bench. The next 2 are most likely 3. OT-Auburn wins 4. OT-Bama wins.

Who had all the momentum? Who had homefield advantage? Who appeared to be losing steam and sluggish down the stretch? We are talking hypotheticals in a parallel universe here but since we're going down this road...I'm indulging the sarcastic "yeah, sure buddy" gif response to above. If it actually went to OT, based on what was happening at the time (MO, tired Bama, fired up Auburn, homefield advantage), I don't think it's a stretch at all to call it 60/40 Auburn.
