Auburn led 17-0 at one point in its 21-17 loss to LSU.
That tells a story by itself. The Tigers, who started off strong behind the right arm of Robby Ashford, faltered in the second half and watched its potential fourth win of the year fade away.
Head coach Bryan Harsin detailed the game in his postgame press conference. He addressed the current state of the program (kind of) after a 9-9 record in the past 18 games.

Not everything was bad. The Tigers did what they wanted to do a the beginning of the game. Harsin urged the Tigers to start off strong and they did just that.
Bryan Harsin: “We started fast. I told our guys we needed to start fast in this game. Overall, it comes down to four quarters of really executing.”
