AUBURN, Ala. – “At the end of the day, the crowd’s not going to impact the game other than the crowd noise.”
At least that’s what Kirby Smart thought going into Saturday’s game at Jordan-Hare Stadium. To be fair, his comments were probably taken a bit out of context, and he did say later in the week that the Auburn fans “do a really good job of creating an environment.”
But it was too late. It was already bulletin-board material for the Auburn faithful.
