I'm not shocked, but this game is a testament as to just how close the top tier of the SEC is with each other.
You notice Verne didn't want to say anything. Just kind of grimaced knowing his Bama team got away with one. If it's Auburn, you would have heard a lot of yapping.
What Auburn needs to realize is they can score by running the ball all the way down the field. There is enough time. If they try something stupid in the passing game, it will likely cost them.
