Not only was his foot in the orange he had not established possession until his left foot came down clearly out of bounds.

It’s almost as if they just gave him the TD so they could have a miraculous catch to show on SportsCenter.

I will definitely be synching with radio coverage for the second half

Already do that.  Unfortunately it's not making the game any better...

[japantiger 4,051]

Unprepared to play a half-assed Big-something nobody.  Way to go Gus.  Earn that $50m.

[Dual-Threat Rigby 8,641]

first quarter was like a C-, that was like a F+

[auburnphan 6,050]

The only thing that can’t happen there is take a sack, we take a sack.  Sums up the first half.   Glad we had a great week of practice and are super focused.

Breaking News: P.J. Fleck is a Damn. Good. Football. Coach.  Carry on.

Then he doesn't need help from the refs? Gotcha.

Who is over rated?  He’s proving he is not or have you not been watching?

I'm making fun of people who said as such beforehand.

We are lucky to only be down 7

Why let the time run out there? God I hate Gus.

Call a timeout . Throw it deep . Gus is clinically stupid .

Did anyone ask for a better OL for Christmas?

[auburntiger1987 759]

17 gifted points from the refs and were still in this game. Maybe something will change in the second half and they will finally watch our game instead. Need some better play calling too. 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Don’t know what the deal is. Looking much worse than the latter portion of the season. Lay-off has obviously affected us. We must get pressure on this QB or he’ll hit Johnson all day

Guarantee he meant to put that in yellow. 

[JDUBB4AU 5,102]

Great way to end a half. Still blaming tuitt and the play calling

That 30 yard pickup before this TD is absolutely on the refs. 

What about the multiple plays where we stunk up the field on O and D... This game is squarely on the Coaches and Players...

Only reason I can see it stood. He clearly had half his foot out before he got control of the ball and then once controlled, had his other foot in the red/orange. No where on Gods green earth was that a catch. But minn is a feel good story so they spot them 14 points

Referring to the refs while you are losing is a sign of a loser.

[AUDynasty 585]

Sorry but this game isn't on the refs. We lack intensity, urgency, and discipline. We're sleepwalking and Minnesota rightfully is taking it to us. We're getting whooped because we haven't showed that we want to play in this game.

I will say that the 7 on the helmets, is really cool. 

No it’s really an embarrassment to Pat to put his number in their helmet then not even care about playing . These guys are just mailing it in today . Coaches included. I hope they enjoyed their vacation and I hope the lose their bonus money.

[WeaglWeaglWDE 599]

The truly sad part is that this does not surprise me. "Two timeouts? Why use them? We've got no chance anyway."- Gus.

Exactly! Instead you let Minnesota run into the lockeroom jacked up about that tackle and with all the momentum in the world. 

[NoALtiger 3,849]

Good thing we had such secrecy with our practices down here. Really working out well. 

[AuburnNTexas 7,127]

Gus is not calling a great game but the real issue is Minn. is just flat out beating our D. They have watched film and turned our strength's into weakness. They double team Brown and then use Davidson's natural aggressiveness against him. The other issue is our LB's are not playing well as they should be filling the hole where RB is running. Since Brown is getting double teamed and sometimes triple teamed they should be in a position to make the plays.

[AUpreacherman22 3,876]

Awful and embarrassing first half!!!!

Our defense has no idea what’s happening.  
 

Offense has made a few plays, but zero running game and dumb play calls are costly!

Special teams has been very good with the exception of the absolute dumbest play of the game!

Very frustrating to watch!!!  MAJOR adjustments must be made at the half!!!!!!
