Auburn v. Kansas State: How to Lose a Football Game

As an Auburn Tiger fan, I was slowly preparing myself for what appeared to be an inevitable loss to Kansas State. With 6:09 remaining, the Auburn Tigers were trailing 13-9 and hadn't done much all night to turn things around. What followed was an amazing display by Kansas State of how to lose a football game and by Auburn of how to take advantage of monumental mistakes.

well, the 'terrible k state' and 'losing to USF was an embarassment' remarks were a little quick. USF runs the table and makes the CG, IMHO

I think USF has surprised a lot of people, but at 6-0, they're still only 1-0 in the Big East. Still a lot of big games for them to play. As an Auburn fan, I hope they do well to help Auburn's SOS and ease the pain of the loss.

Yeah i really wouldn't brag about having to come back in the 4th quarter at home against a terrible K-State team. Oh yeah losing to USF was also a embarresment to the SEC

[ftelegdy]

Who's bragging? I said that K-State did what they could to lose and Auburn took advantage of that. That's that. No bragging.

And yes, losing to USF was an embarrassment. So what? It doesn't change what happened against K-State.

okay you know what who cares. KSTATE wasn't even supposed to come CLOSE to auburn in points. we were winnin till like the last 2 minutes of the game.

"We were winnin till like the last 2 minutes of the game."

And I believe that's my point.

Except for the fact that USF was #2 in the nation at one time in the season

7-2, good call.

Nothing to be ashamed of for the Kitties, they played a h*ll of a game in a tough environment but that Groves kid made all the difference.

USF is good. and the SEC conference is gonna get surprised in the bowls this year. mark my words

[ftelegdy]

I agree. Refs need to be held accountable when they tell the opposing quarterback to get the crowd back into the game and cause a quarterback to throw an interception after almost being intercepted half a dozen times.
