Auburn quarterback Brandon Cox called three timeouts at the line of scrimmage, two in the first half, as the LSU crowd roared to disrupt his attempts to improvise on play calls. A delay-of-game penalty and regrets over prematurely burning timeouts haunted Auburn in the wake of its first SEC loss of the season.

"When they can't hear," Miles said, "and they need a first down and they have to communicate a check -- and have to do it in a time frame that they can't get it done -- it costs them a timeout, unless they want to take a penalty.

"That's an advantage to our stadium."

Don't believe him? Ask Auburn players, as Alabama reporters did Saturday night.

"It was a loud crowd, and we couldn't hear out there," Cox told The Mobile Register.

Running back Kenny Irons echoed his quarterback's comments. "The crowd noise affected us," Irons told the south Alabama newspaper.
