there's going to be an easy narrative out there that Auburn got too high off the Georgia win and didn't have the focus or whatever I personally don't think it's any of that I think Auburn is just getting completely beaten by a more talented team today open.substack.com/chat/posts…

Auburn HC Alex Golesh on issues in the running game, credits LSU defense: "Just we weren't good enough, and we didn't find enough creative ways to be able to generate run game." Auburn had 67 yards rushing.

Auburn HC Alex Golesh: "We're not efficient offensively early. We're not efficient offensively as we went. And then in the second half, I thought from an adjustment standpoint, it didn't look like anything that would resemble good offensive football."

Auburn HC Alex Golesh: "That was a really, really bad performance on both sides. There's no silver lining. There's no anything. That was bad in every imaginable way."

Auburn had two true big home games this season — Florida and LSU — with the way the schedule worked out offensive outputs for the Tigers were pretty different, but they allowed an average of 523.5 yards and 41 points across those two games in your own building, that's brutal

Auburn's defense gave up 400 yards or more 3 times each in 2024 and 2025, DJ Durkin's first two seasons. This marks Auburn's fourth game giving up 400 or more already this season, and will probably cross 500 before the day is done.
13:56 4Q | LSU 38, Auburn 10 Auburn misses a handful of tackles, and it's a 12-yard TD run for LSU.

LSU doesn't add to its lead, but it did drain half of the third quarter clock on that drive. Auburn ball down 31-10 with 7:29 in the third quarter.

Auburn got the ball with 17 seconds remaining until halftime and somehow still went three-and-out.

That was LSU showing it can do whatever it wants and Auburn cannot stop it. 346 yards for the Bayou Bengals in just the first half.
0:17 2Q | LSU 31, Auburn 10 Sam Leavitt with a short TD run, and Auburn is getting bullied in its home stadium.

Auburn's secondary has been unable to keep up with LSU's wide receivers, especially Harris, so not sure why you drop 8 in that situation. Huge drive coming up for Auburn since LSU will get the ball to start the second half.
4:29 2Q | LSU 24, Auburn 10 Auburn goes with a 3-man rush on 3rd-and-6, and Sam Leavitt hits Jackson Harris for a 70-yard touchdown over the middle. Harris has 7 receptions for 139 yards and 2 TDs.

Auburn is going to go as far as Brown can take them this season. A 3rd-and-long scramble from him is Auburn's best play of the day so far.
5:42 2Q | LSU 17, Auburn 10 Byrum Brown gets his touchdown from practically an inch out. Well deserved after the third-down run. Tigers back down by one score.
