It happens in sports sometimes. Golfers call it the yips. Hitters in baseball call it a slump. Shooters go cold in basketball. Kickers miss 5 field goals in a row.
And sometimes, I guess, it can happen to coaches. Unfortunately for Auburn, it has happened to Gus Malzahn.
Texas A&M 29-Auburn 16 is just another chapter in this Greek Tragedy that is Auburn football. A story that is sad but true. A story that includes a 7 game home losing streak to teams that wouldn't be classified as cupcakes, and a 9-13 overall record since an upset loss to Texas A&M back in 2014.
