I'll go with the entire Nutt tenure. Pick a year and game and play and I'll most likely agree

Worst Play Call In Your School's History?Spiking the ball with one second left

Auburn scored all four of their TDs in that game on defense. A 1st quarter fumble recovery in the endzone and three pick-sixes in the 4th quarter.
This is kind of the "gotcha" moment I always use on Auburn fans about that game. They were completely inept on offense that day, and it took one of the greatest coaching frick ups in the history of the sport for them to win. A surreal game to watch, thats for sure.

I would have thought "Clock it, clock it"...would have been in here somewhere.
Ehh...the plays before this were much worse. We had already lost by the "clock it.." part.
LSU was driving, down by 2, and in FG range. All we had to do was run the ball a few times and set up for an easy FG attempt to win. So what does Gary Crowton do?
He calls a fricking pass play on 2nd down from shotgun formation with a QB who has ben sacked 300 times during the year, can you guess what happens? Yep he gets sacked.
That's ok we got 3rd down to make up yardage - guess what he calls again? Another fricking pass play from shotgun formation where Jefferson once again gets sacked pushing LSU out of FG range.
This was far worse then the 'clock it' episode at the very end, imo.

Have any Hog fans mentioned the 2005 South Carolina game? 4th and 2 inside our 20. 1st quarter. We run it up the middle. Turn it over on downs.

Fortunately, I was only 7 when the game played and I was not into it, yet. Had I seen this live, and the Rant been around, oh brother!
The concept of even throwing the ball in that situation is mind boggling. How Curley beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa the year before befuddles me. Guess for one day pigs really could fly.

How is that a gotcha moment? Any Auburn fan that actually attended or watched that game remembers that the Auburn offense that day was utterly inept.
I don't understand how this could be a "gotcha"?

Perhaps thats why I said "KIND OF the "gotcha" moment"...
"kind of" and quotes around "gotcha" set it up as not really being a gotcha moment...but my point being that a shite ton of people don't realize every Auburn point that day was scored on turnovers. Call it a "Hmmph, I didn't know that" moment, if you like...
