He's the long kicker, not even the regular kicker. He left a 57-yard attempt slightly short. The other team had a play on and ran it back. None of his ten teammates, who are actually expected to make tackles now and again, laid a hand on the returner. This was after Coach Satan argued to have a second put back on the clock so that he could make the try and not have to go to OT.

So whoever "blew" the Iron Bowl (in the reality-based world, Auburn may actually have won it fair and square), it wasn't him.

A first year head coach put the return on and outsmarted the great Satan -- I mean Saban (both about the same though).

Cade Foster #43, not the kicker from the last field goal. That was Adam Griffith.
