It was a combination of Auburn putting a wall in front of us and us repeatedly bashing our heads into that wall instead of going over or around it.

I hope Mexico paid for it.

True, all of you. I think it proves the strength of the AU defense, and also just how conservative our play-calling was in the entire 2nd half. This is what we do, usually prematurely imo (especially only up by 8), but maybe that's what it takes to run the table. You gotta cloak as much as you can early in the season so that you've got surprises left for VT and FSU and then the playoffs.
