It was low tide all game. Bama didn't "deserve" to win. But as William Munny said, "Deserve's got nothing to do with it."

Alabama came through in the end. That’s why deserve has nothing to do with it.

All they did was improve their record. Squeaking by a .500 team in the 4th O.T. didn't help their cause in regards to the play-off picture or the rankings.

Bama is real popular in SC........4 outta 5 SC fans pick bama as their fallback SEC bandwagon every Halloween.
Best part is, Atlanta Braves fan hats are easily interpreted as bama gear and is a lot more affordable.

Auburn worked pretty hard to lose it.
Red Tide! "The Smell!"
Enjoy Georgia...

Alabama is simply not an elite team this year. They are very good, but the O line is marginal. Couple that with not having a good running back, and the offense struggles against good defensive teams. The defense is soft and can't seem to clamp down when they need to. I don't see how they win against GA. Does a 2 loss Alabama team deserve a trip to the playoffs? Gonna get interesting. Tears will be shed this year when the selection is made.

I've been an Auburn fan since the 50s and am a '72 graduate, and have had to endure the ups and downs of the Iron Bowl series all that time. We've had to face the two best coaches (some would argue that, I don't) to ever lead teams on the field during that time. There have been some doozies over the years, and yesterday was one of them. Auburn came into the game with nothing to lose and played their hearts out. The defense especially played lights out. The offense played with their backup QB (playing hobbled the last quarter and 4 OTs) and placekicker. In the end, they just came out one play short against a much more talented opponent. My hat is off to Bama for doing what it takes to win.
To those that predict Bama's doom against UGA, you may be right. UGA is about as good as they have ever been this year and they want to beat Bama BAD! But don't ever count Bama out.... they tend to find ways to win.

Hard game to swallow. I’ll enjoy Georgia knocking Bama out of the picture next Saturday WDE…

Tears will be shed this year when the selection is made. Excellent summary, agree 100%. Not a typical 'Bama year and it's quite obvious. They're about like ND, Ohio State though in that the media and NCAA will take advantage of every moment to cram them down our throats every year.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

A #3 ranked Bama with arguably the best coach in the Nation and a Heisman contender barely managed to squeak out a victory against an injured and unraked Auburn...congrats?
If Bama plays like they did last night, UGA going to curb stomp them.

Georgia's defense is for real......and that's what wins championships. I think the SEC title game will be rather low scoring, with Georgia winning by 10 or so. Bama's O-line is going to get manhandled all night long, and their QB will be running for his life. I like watching Saban whine.
