“A lot of times over the course of a season, it’s how you win. Last week we faced some adversity, and you find out how you react. Today we faced major adversity at home,” said Auburn Coach Gus Malzahn in his Jacksonville State post game press conference.
“We had a lot of new guys on the field late in the game. We were really counting on them to help us win the game. As far as that experience in winning games late, that will help us later on (and) when our backs are against the wall, we’re going to find a way to win … We really appreciate our fans, for hanging around.
