Auburn fell to rival Alabama 55-44 in last season’s Iron Bowl, squandering a 12-pound second half lead in the process.
As the 2015 season approaches, it’s clear Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn still harbors some bitterness for how the game played out. He may have fired the team’s defensive coordinator, Ellis Johnson, following the loss, but recently laid much of the blame on the Tigers’ offense in an article with ESPN’s Chris Low.
“We didn’t score touchdowns in the red zone. We should have put 60 on them, and we didn’t,” Malzahn said.
