MSU/Auburn Game Thread

[BeardoMSU]

Lets go get the lead, Will.

[magrooder]

BLOCKED the F'N field goal!!!!! Let's take the lead right here!

[HoopsDawg]

I like it. The analytics like it. Just bc it didn't work out doesn't mean it was wrong

I'm not sure the analytics like going for 2 down 5 in the 3Q. Are you sure about that?

[Maverick91]

O my gosh! Yes! Good job boys!

[parabrave]

Yeah great playl SP teams makes a play.

[ShotgunDawg]

We got juice boys

[DownwardDawg]

Imagine if we could ever play an entire game. Crazy.

[msstate7]

I'm not sure the analytics like going for 2 down 5 in the 3Q. Are you sure about that?

Pretty sure. I know it does in nfl, but the difference in PAT yardage in college may change it

[BeardoMSU]

Awesome grab by Heath.

[magrooder]

We look like a totally different team AND Auburn looks like a totally different team! Amazing

[ShotgunDawg]

Wohohoho

[BhamDawg]

I'm not sure the analytics like going for 2 down 5 in the 3Q. Are you sure about that?

Yea, those are made up analytics. 10 minutes left in the 4th qtr, I wouldn?t argue.

[Maverick91]

We are out playing them right now, it’s really easy to see.

[DownwardDawg]

We got juice boys

What changed?? How is this happening??

[ShotgunDawg]

Malik 17ing Heath

[Bothrops]

Holy balls!!!

[Statecoachingblows**]

Heart rate up

[BeardoMSU]

[Matt3467]

So how does the ref keep us from snapping the ball but the play clock is running?

[CzarBulldawgRic]

Auburn defense is gassed!

[ShotgunDawg]

Auburn's pass rush looks absolutely gassed

[MBDawg601]

Unbelievable how this team has no quit.

28-3 at half. Insane fight.

[msstate7]

So how does the ref keep us from snapping the ball but the play clock is running?

I think they've called it straight up. We've got 2 bid DPI calls that helped fuel this comeback

[Gypsy_RoadDawg]

Awesome grab by Heath.

Heath is having the game of his career!!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Unbelievable how this team has no quit.

28-3 at half. Insane fight.

It was not 28-3 at half.

[ShotgunDawg]

We finish this. Gotta finish

[msstate7]

And another call in our favor. Please stop crying about officiating... it's been straight up

[ShotgunDawg]

Another good flag

[MBDawg601]

It was not 28-3 at half.

I stand corrected. 28-10 at half. Forgot we drove down before end of 2nd.

[magrooder]

I'm surprised we're getting these PI calls

[ShotgunDawg]

Good run to keep them honest

[ShotgunDawg]

Their guy was off sides

[BeardoMSU]

Holy shit! We take the lead.

[msstate7]

2 again

[MBDawg601]

Pretty generous spot. I'll take it.

[magrooder]

BULLDAWGS take the Lead!!!! UnF'nbelieveable!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Holy shit

[Maverick91]

Omg! Great job boys!

[BhamDawg]

2 again

Can make the first one a moot point right here.

[MBDawg601]

We need the pylon flat route to Polk for the 2pt play.

[OLJWales]

I'm surprised we're getting these PI calls

What happens when a D is gassed.

[msstate7]

He was short

[Maroonthirteen]

Yeah baby. LFG.

[BeardoMSU]

That's why I didn't like the first 2 pt attempt; it forced us to go for 2 this time. Instead of being up 3, we're up 1.

[WhiskeyPirate]

Just kick the pat leach. That’s two points off the board

[ShotgunDawg]

Shoot. These 2 points conversions are killing us

[Matt3467]

That's why I didn't like the first 2 pt attempt; it forced us to go for 2 this time. Instead of being up 3, we're up 1.

Yep

[maroonmania]

I wish Dillon Johnson had been running that one. He probably would have gotten in before going down. More of a power back.

[Bothrops]

Holy Shet!!

[msstate7]

I will be pretty surprised if they don't PA and throw deep on 1st or 2nd down. Be ready

[defiantdog]

Just kick the pat leach. That’s two points off the board
If we can make it

[starkvegasdawg]

That's why I didn't like the first 2 pt attempt; it forced us to go for 2 this time. Instead of being up 3, we're up 1.

This. All day.

[parabrave]

Remember Aubbie fell apart in the 2nd hal last week.

[HoopsDawg]

welp, win or lose, great comeback.

[ShotgunDawg]

That's why I didn't like the first 2 pt attempt; it forced us to go for 2 this time. Instead of being up 3, we're up 1.

Agree. I don't like going for two until you have to

Let's go defense. Auburn is going to fight

[bobtail bob]

Is that what this air raid going to involve? Drinking to kill my pain one half and no soberness left the second to celebrate the comeback

[Maverick91]

This is why you don’t go for it that early! So dumb!

[Matt3467]

Marks should've scored though but I hated the first 2pt call. Even if we made that first one I'd have been happy but at the same time told you it was a dumb idea.

[parabrave]

I will be pretty surprised if they don't PA and throw deep on 1st or 2nd down. Be ready

Nix hurting.

[ShotgunDawg]

welp, win or lose, great comeback.

Yeah. We deserve this one though. After last week, Memphis, & LSU, we deserve this one

[starkvegasdawg]

Huge possession by our defense here.

[defiantdog]

I wish Dillon Johnson had been running that one. He probably would have gotten in before going down. More of a power back.
Marks is better at getting forward.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

That's why I didn't like the first 2 pt attempt; it forced us to go for 2 this time. Instead of being up 3, we're up 1.

Agree. Had to go for 2 there. But if we had kicked the PAT the first time, we could have kicked the PAT the second time and been leading 31-28

[RocketDawg]

Win or lose, it's a great comeback.

It's obvious that Leach doesn't have any confidence in the kicker, even though the decisions to go for 2 were sort of reasonable at the time.

The defense should be well rested - they've hardly been on the field since halftime.

[BhamDawg]

Of 17n course. This is exactly why you kick the extra point on the last touchdown. Could be up a fg. Clown decision.

[Dawgology]

Unbelievable comebackZ. But the defense has to keep them from scoring. This game will fall on the D’s shoulders in the end.

[BeardoMSU]

Will is 30 of his last 32, lol. Unreal.

[ShotgunDawg]

Unbelievable comebackZ. But the defense has to keep them from scoring. This game will fall on the D’s shoulders in the end.

I think the offense has one more TD in them

[magrooder]

Nix hurting.

Need to keep the pressure on him

[BeardoMSU]

Really need Bad-Bo to show up here.

[ShotgunDawg]

Let's go defense. Keep the juice

[BeardoMSU]

Dammit!!!! Gotta recover that.

[magrooder]

Damn that would have been a big turnover

[ShotgunDawg]

Good job defense. Pressure Bo. Make him move

[maroonmania]

Dang, so close to getting that fumble.

[BeardoMSU]

GD...of course.

[HoopsDawg]

Killer penalty.

[ShotgunDawg]

late flag. holy crap

[msstate7]

Anyone see it?

[parabrave]

And the refs come to save the day

[maroonmania]

That call will turn the game. There it is.

[RocketDawg]

Couldn't really see the targeting call. Will have to wait replays to tell.

[magrooder]

Would have been nice to see the damn play

[BeardoMSU]

Where's the ****ing replay?!

Hopefully they overturn the targeting....bc they didn't also call a PI there, so it'd be 4th down.

[ShotgunDawg]

Awful penalty by Forbes. Hopefully they pick it up

[preachermatt83]

Big big big penalty right there.

[RocketDawg]

Not sure why they went to ads instead of showing the replays.

[MBDawg601]

Never seen them not show the replay.. wtf

[ShotgunDawg]

https://twitter.com/ScoutSteveR/status/1459612716822319107?s=20

[magrooder]

Where's the ****ing replay?!

Hopefully they overturn the targeting....bc they didn't also call a PI there, so it'd be 4th down.

No way they overturn the targeting, even tho I didn't see the play. I have zero confidence in the overturn.

[BeardoMSU]

Wouldn't have happened had we recovered the damn fumble...

[ShotgunDawg]

https://twitter.com/Theo_DeRosa/status/1459612785386704898?s=20

[parabrave]

Holy crp the refs get it right

[Maverick91]

I hope they don’t see malicious intent. This is huge!

[ShotgunDawg]

Defense has had an amazing turn around

[BeardoMSU]

Wow!!!!! We catch a big break.

[WhiskeyPirate]

This is fixed if they call that shit and won’t show the replay

Nice bailout by the crooked officials

I guess targeting ra ra is okay to overturn

[RocketDawg]

Not even close to targeting.

[magrooder]

I am SHOCKED! Why throw that flag to begin with? Shit.

[vindastra]

Thank goodness

[Statecoachingblows**]

Go get 6

[ShotgunDawg]

Get the ball & finish their asses

[RocketDawg]

This is fixed if they call that shit and won’t show the replay

Nice bailout by the crooked officials

I guess targeting ra ra is okay to overturn

Officiating in the game has been fair so far.

[magrooder]

Let's go Offense don't let up now

[ShotgunDawg]

I am SHOCKED! Why throw that flag to begin with? Shit.

It gives them the option of review. I'm fine with it

[MBDawg601]

When will we have a legit return threat? No slight at AW, but he is no threat. Great possession return guy though!

[BeardoMSU]

Hot Damn.

[magrooder]

Receivers are getting wide open now

[ShotgunDawg]

Finish them right here

[Matt3467]

I am SHOCKED! Why throw that flag to begin with? Shit.

I think the ref behind saw the receiver lying there initially lifeless and had a kneejerk moment after the bang bang play

[BeardoMSU]

Nice ****ing run, DJ.

[magrooder]

Johnson with a great run

[MBDawg601]

Great cut back!! lfg

[RocketDawg]

Do we try for 2 again if we get a TD? I say yes.

[vindastra]

Johnson would have scored that 2 pointer

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM. Make their ass 17ing quit

[BeardoMSU]

Look at that, a rushing 1st down.

[WhiskeyPirate]

We look like the team that’s wants it, score right here

[magrooder]

DJ getting it done!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Here we go

[BeardoMSU]

Will with his 5th ****ing TD!!!!!

I can't believe this shit, lol.

[RocketDawg]

Amazing. Now, if the D can just hang on.

[magrooder]

HoLee Shit!! Calvin with the easy 6

[BhamDawg]

Should be up 10.

[MBDawg601]

This is one of the best defenses in the country. Will is carving.

[RocketDawg]

8 point lead.

[vindastra]

Auburn has quit. Come on Defense now.

[HoopsDawg]

The timing on these routes and throws is impressive.

[Maverick91]

I’m so proud of these dudes!

[WhiskeyPirate]

Holy shit

Nice to have those two points back right about now

Auburn d looks worn down. Dillon should get every carry in the fourth quarter

[maroonmania]

Unreal. Still only a one score game though due to throwing away 2 extra points.

[Bothrops]

Leach beach blanket bingo

[ShotgunDawg]

Best offensive game in school history right here boys. This shit is unstoppable

[Matt3467]

Dear Will,

I'm sorry for picking on you about your arm strength earlier. I think you're a really good QB.


Yours truly,

Matt

[ShotgunDawg]

Auburn has quit. Come on Defense now.

They know they can't stop us

[msstate7]

This 2nd half has been awesome. What a great comeback

[Maverick91]

This offense lives and does by the QB.

[Statecoachingblows**]

In shock...this 2nd half does not compute

[Matt3467]

Guys we need to give Arnett some love here too

[Statecoachingblows**]

Guys we need to give Arnett some love here too

Truth

[MBDawg601]

Defense in the 2nd half has been way more aggressive. Not sure what was said in the locker room, but I like it.

[OLJWales]

Unreal. Still only a one score game though due to throwing away 2 extra points.

Id call it 1.5 scores away.

[ShotgunDawg]

Defense has to finish

[WhiskeyPirate]

Air raid is a thing of beauty when it gets rolling

Right now auburn d is out on its feet, I can’t see them stopping us if we get the ball back

[msstate7]

The timing on these routes and throws is impressive.

I was a major doubter of will, but as I've watched more of this offense, arm strength really seems insignificant.

[Cowbell]

I almost turned this off in the second quarter. I'm sorry to all of our boys and our coaches for nearly giving up. Give me Will over Bo Nix any day. You boys better get ready- we have a legit heisman contender heading into next season. Nobody has put up these kind of numbers in the SEC outside of Joe Burrow one year.

[RocketDawg]

Was Grantham fired at Florida? 63-52 and it's not an OT game.

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on defense

[MBDawg601]

Air raid is a thing of beauty when it gets rolling

Right now auburn d is out on its feet, I can?t see them stopping us if we get the ball back

If they can't sustain a drive. They'rein BIG trouble.

[ShotgunDawg]

3rd and long. Let's go

[msstate7]

If auburn sticks with nix, we got this. He's hurt

[ShotgunDawg]

https://twitter.com/Im3Fly/status/1459615722322210818?s=20

[RocketDawg]

If auburn sticks with nix, we got this. He's hurt

Who's their backup? He doesn't appear to be in great shape.

[WhiskeyPirate]

I was a major doubter of will, but as I've watched more of this offense, arm strength really seems insignificant.

Will is playing perfect. It is nice to be able to stretch the defense so they can’t keep everything in front of them. Arm strength isn’t number one requirement for air raid an but it helps.

[msstate7]

Who's their backup? He doesn't appear to be in great shape.

Finley, transfer from LSU

[ShotgunDawg]

Who's their backup? He doesn't appear to be in great shape.

The LSU QB last year. Finley?

[Maverick91]

These boys deserve this so much! Close this thing out.

Both sides have come out of the half a different team.

[ShotgunDawg]

Duncan again. Sheesh

[magrooder]

We have to get to Nix

[ShotgunDawg]

We deserve this game. Let's go

[maroonmania]

Second chance for the defense to get off the field here on 3rd and long. Do it!

[magrooder]

Way to go Defense

[BeardoMSU]

Great stop D!

[MBDawg601]

Drive the nail in the coffin here.

[ShotgunDawg]

Atta boy Green

[BeardoMSU]

HHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Nice trickery, assholes.

[magrooder]

F you Auburn. Let's go Offense!!! Make them pay

[msstate7]

There was nothing there. Great job

[maroonmania]

Can't believe a trick play DIDN'T work against us!

[ShotgunDawg]

WOO HOO

[BeardoMSU]

Step on their throat, Will.

[ShotgunDawg]

Let's go. Bury them right here

[magrooder]

Rogers is running this o like a magician right now!

[ShotgunDawg]

This is unreal

[BeardoMSU]

Thank Christ we recovered that....yikes.

[magrooder]

close one

[WhiskeyPirate]

Steady dose of Dillon Johnson mixed in with some passes

They are gassed

[maroonmania]

What was Will doing there??

[ShotgunDawg]

Will has to get rid of that

[BeardoMSU]

Gonna have to hit a FG....

[magrooder]

Rogers has to be able to move around better than that

[RocketDawg]

What's happened with our DL?

[maroonmania]

Will is just NOT going to throw a ball away. Now we are not even in FG range.

[BeardoMSU]

Ooooh please give them a targeting...

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on now. They're throwing the kitchen sink now

[ShotgunDawg]

Ooooh please give them a targeting...

That was targeting

[Maverick91]

YOU CANNOT LUNGE INTO THE HEAD OR NECK AREA.

[MBDawg601]

He launched to the head or neck. Could go to targeting.

[BeardoMSU]

That's definitely helmet to helmet!!!!

[magrooder]

Please be targeting

[ShotgunDawg]

Helmet to helmet

[RocketDawg]

Don't think that was targeting. We'll see.

[magrooder]

He definately launched

[msstate7]

Are we still saying refs are cheating us? That was a horrible call

[BeardoMSU]

Ahahaha! **** you Jordan Rogers.

[RocketDawg]

Well, I guess there was. Good for us.

[BeardoMSU]

Are we still saying refs are cheating us? That was a horrible call

Make up for the Memphis game, lol. **** 'em.

[msstate7]

Man, that's as horrible a call as I've saw

[magrooder]

We have gotten some really questionable calls our way this week, finally.

[OLJWales]

Will the SEC cheat to protect the higher ranked as usual?

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM

[HoopsDawg]

It's targeting. I absolutely hate the call, but it's targeting. Lashley is going to get Will killed.

[maroonmania]

Are the SEC refs trying to give us one? I don't think that was targeting.

[RocketDawg]

Are we still saying refs are cheating us? That was a horrible call

Gotta agree.

[MBDawg601]

Holy hell. This game is backwards as hell.

There goes their best DL

[vindastra]

What happened? Referees not helping Auburn now?

[WhiskeyPirate]

Are we still saying refs are cheating us? That was a horrible call

After the Memphis and Arkansas games how could you not think they are screwing us ?

[ShotgunDawg]

Man, that's as horrible a call as I've saw

It was helmet to helmet

[msstate7]

Make up for the Memphis game, lol. **** 'em.

Yeah, I'll definitely take it, but I think it's bad

[Matt3467]

It's targeting. I absolutely hate the call, but it's targeting. Lashley is going to get Will killed.

Was that Lashley for sure?

[magrooder]

Burn that clock

[ShotgunDawg]

Finish them. Let's go

[RocketDawg]

It's targeting. I absolutely hate the call, but it's targeting. Lashley is going to get Will killed.

Agree with that also.

[HoopsDawg]

Are the SEC refs trying to give us one? I don't think that was targeting.

Clear targeting. I'm not sure what game yall are watching. Hate the rule, not the call.

[maroonmania]

Running is what we should have done before. We really just need a FG here.

[ShotgunDawg]

Atta boy Woody

[OLJWales]

Stupid giving up those sacks when a FG would be so crucial.

[HoopsDawg]

Was that Lashley for sure?

afraid so.

[magrooder]

Smoke their ASS!!!! Heath the TD!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Unreal

[vindastra]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[maroonmania]

Clear targeting. I'm not sure what game yall are watching. Hate the rule, not the call.

Targeting giveth, targeting taketh away.

[HoopsDawg]

We kicked Auburns ass. What changed with our defense?

[Vandownbytheriver]

If we only had an SEC level qb.....

[WhiskeyPirate]

Holy shit

We are a top 15 team. There are not 15 teams better than us.

Team should be 8-2 in top ten

[Matt3467]

Well at least McCord is getting some practice today

[RocketDawg]

Our lucky day on that kick.

[KOdawg1]

STOP WAVING

[BhamDawg]

40 unanswered. Unreal.

Should be a 3 possession game though.

[Commercecomet24]

Can we finally bury "air raid will
never work in the sec" bs! That's a dead horse now!

[MBDawg601]

Still doesn't feel over. Need another stop by the D and I'll Crack open a beer.

[magrooder]

Kick it out of the end zone please

[msstate7]

Clear targeting. I'm not sure what game yall are watching. Hate the rule, not the call.

I thought it fit the nfl roughing the passer rule of not driving the qb to the ground with full body weight, but I didn't think it was targeting.

Regardless, great win

[bobtail bob]

Screw Auburn and their booing fans. They think because they were getting away with that garbage in the first half , they can keep eating from that trough. It was targeting,you can’t launch to the head.

[WhiskeyPirate]

Can we finally bury "air raid will
never work in the sec" bs! That's a dead horse now!

Exactly. There are a few numb nuts still mumbling that nonsense

[Vandownbytheriver]

Can we finally bury "air raid will
never work in the sec" bs! That's a dead horse now!

Don't you mean airbone and Will isn't a SEC or D1 qb

[Commercecomet24]

Don't you mean airbone and Will isn't a SEC or D1 qb

Right lol!

[Turfdawg67]

A bunch of y'all better go back and delete comments on the first 20 pages. LOL

Hail State!

[maroonmania]

Forbes absolutey should have had that which would have ended the game.

[RocketDawg]

40 unanswered points, so far. Auburn may score here.

[magrooder]

Come on guys don't make me this f'n nervous.

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on guys. Don't give them a chance

[magrooder]

Turnover please

[RocketDawg]

Can we cover an onside kick if they score?

[RocketDawg]

Prevent D strikes again?

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on guys. Brutal defense there

[maroonmania]

Forbes could have ended it but this one is now far from over.

[Matt3467]

2pt plays coming back to bite us

[BeardoMSU]

Hopefully they do as well as we have on 2pt conversions.

[ShotgunDawg]

I thought his but hit before the ball crossed
