Auburn lost because their defense was spent on the last drive of regular play. They had zero get off at the line of scrimmage. Give Young credit, the way the Auburn defense played ((95 % of other QB's would have been harassed into throwing 2-3 interceptions during the game) but to his credit he was cool as a cucumber, when Auburn had the ball he sat on the bench away from other players with complete emotional detachment. I never saw him look discouraged or frown at anyone when something went wrong. He wasn't rah-rah either, just locked in. He had a job to do and he did it. 95% of other QB's couldn't have done what he did on that last drive. He made great throws when he absolutely had to. Give the guy props.
We have played great defense most of the year. Auburn's defense was the best I've seen in any 1 game this year, or for most of 4 quarters. I hope our defense will rise to that same level of play and even better. I know Auburn played man on man in the secondary most of the game. I don't think that is our style of play, we play a lot of zone. We'll see.
