Nerd’s Take: Here We Are Again

Losing sucks.

There’s just no better way to say it. I don’t care if you are the biggest sunshine pumper in the Auburn fanbase or the ultimate negabarner who screams for everyone in the Auburn athletic department to be fired after a run for no gain, you both felt that gut punch Saturday.

Auburn, once again, found a way to lose a very winnable game. How winnable a game? Bill Connelly’s numbers say Auburn had an 83% postgame win expectancy based on how the game played out. That’s an EXTREMELY winnable game that Auburn somehow lost.
