I can easily say they were lucky. The decisive play was when it looked like your No. 5 was down in the last drive. Everybody stopped. There was defensive tackle right there to take him right back down if he thought the ball was still alive. The play was called correctly, but Auburn was lucky. They don't have that happen, then they don't make it and they go into overtime.
