It was another "big play" performance by the Auburn Tigers. The Auburn offense recorded seven plays of 30-yards or more, the most against a Power-5 opponent by an Auburn offense from 1992-2017. Though Auburn had only 56 offensive snaps, they cashed it in for over 500-yards and six offensive touchdowns. Before tonight, Malzahn's offense at the collegiate level had been under 60 snaps against Power-5 competition on 17 occasions. Auburn averaged only 21 points per game. Jarrett Stidham had another stellar performance with a pass rating of 195.7 during his last three games combined and a rating of 231.5 during his last two games. Auburn recorded only 14 first downs, but the big plays allowed Auburn to pile up the points and yardage. Prior tonight, Auburn had been held to 15 first downs or less since Malzahn was responsible for the offense. Auburn was 2-8 during those games for an average of 15.9 points per game. The Auburn defense turned in another solid performance, which was slightly tainted by the Bulldogs gaining over 100-yards in garbage time against Auburn's backup defenders. The starting defense allowed 4.05 yards per play before the backup defenders allowed 104-yards on 23 snaps. The Bulldogs had success running the ball against Auburn, but it hurt the Tigers more so in the "time of possession" game than the scoreboard, where it matters most. The Tiger secondary played their best game of the season accounting for a season-high, 12 passes broken up along with two interceptions. Kevin Steele's defense has now held the opponent to under 20 points during 14 of 18 games. The last time Auburn held 14 of 18 opponents under 20 points was during the 2006 and 2007 seasons. Once again, Auburn was able to play reserves to continue their building of quality depth. Chip Lindsey did an exceptional job of attacking the Mississippi State defense, making the Bulldogs pay for bringing their safeties up to defend the run. Even though Auburn only attempted 17 passes on the night, eight different Tigers recorded at least one reception. Auburn's seven plays of 30-yards equated to 381-yards more than Mississippi State gained on 84 offensive snaps. Jarrett Stidham's accuracy on the deep passes is something to marvel, and he is beginning to live up to his preseason hype as a passer. Auburn has recorded ten pass plays of 30-yards or more during the last two games. Auburn had 16 such pass plays during the entire 2016 season, the same number they had during the 2015 season. Auburn's 49-10 victory over Mississippi State was another step forward for the 2017 Auburn Tigers, and there is still plenty of room for improvement on offense. The defense has been playing with a lot of confidence this season, and the Auburn offense is quickly catching up during the past two games. The ceiling on this team remains high but it is important they stay focused to avoid an upset. They are good enough to beat any team remaining on their schedule but not consistent enough at this point to overlook any future Power-5 opponents. The Bulldogs victory over LSU has been diminished over the past two weeks but Auburn's win tonight was certainly a more impressive performance than last weeks win over Missouri.

PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 I'm thinking there's room on this board for both yours and dmoney's analysis. Both are spot on I'm not sure there's a coordinator out there that I enjoy seeing his nose rubbed in it like Grantham. We out-gained their entire offensive production on seven plays alone. Pretty sure Louisville doesn't miss that guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait a minute......I know I read here a week or so ago that Grantham had Gus's number....which could be true...but looks like he was not as well prepared for CCL who might have been calling the plays for the game....at least the plays that seemed to work well.

AUApostle 7,651 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 It's huge that our young defenders have been able to get at least a quarter of action the last 2 games against SEC starting units. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His absence felt very similar to that one time all the NFL refs went on strike and were replaced by Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
