I kept thinking a QB draw might be effective, considering the fact that the blitz was coming from around the ends. If they could've gotten decent blocking from the center and two guards, the QB probably could have taken it to the house for the tie.

Watching this game makes me that much happier that we have JT as a coach. Spurrier blew the clock management at the end of this game. Wasted too much time on 1st & 2nd down - it basically made it 4th and the ballgame vs. 4th and 1. No one manages the clock at the end of a game better that JT.

TRESSEL: Not by Saturday. So, I don't know, I don't give it any thought.

Considering Auburn's defense only had to play 3 quarters, they didn't look all that impressive. You keep hearing about their "speed" but the QB was running wild on them, getting to the edge more often than not. Spurrier really blew that last play. The slant was working all day, as was the QB rolling out with the option to pass or run. Auburn would've bit on a little playaction.
