In a craaaazy finish LSU beats Auburn!
Flynn finished with 319 yards passing and three touchdowns, the last on what seemed to be a risky play called by a coach who’s shown he’s not afraid to gamble.
Les Miles had converted five fourth downs in a dramatic 28-24 victory over Florida the last time LSU was at home. This time, he let Flynn take one last shot at the end zone with the clock winding down when the safer play would have been to set up for a potential game-winning field goal.
LSU had a timeout left, but the Tigers cut it awfully close on their final play.
Miles said those calls come from being confident in his players, who had come back from a 17-7 halftime deficit.
The victory also puts LSU on the inside track to win the SEC West, as the winner of the Auburn-LSU rivalry has done in five of the past seven years.

Long time reader. First or second comment.
I’m an Auburn grad living near Orlando. As is my custom on football Saturdays, I wore an Auburn t-shirt all day which usually results in a few comments about the game. Yesterday was no different. When asked about the game, I simply responded that I hoped it would be a good game. As anyone who watches Auburn football knows, Auburn will either win or lose a nail biter or they will be completely blown out.
Wow!!! That was a football game!!!
Congrats to you and your Tigers.

As an Auburn fan, I have to say that I hope that Les Miles doesn’t take the Michigan job, I want there to be many epic battles between him and Tubberville in the years ahead.
