Winning TD Ruled Too Late at Auburn
Leonard Fournette led LSU withAUBURN, Ala. -- Danny Etling's 15-yard game-winning touchdown pass to D.J. Chark was overturned by video review citing no time remaining on the clock, and LSU fell to Auburn, 18-13, on a steamy night at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
On the previous play, LSU (2-2, 1-1 SEC) was flagged for an illegal shift after picking up a first down at the Auburn 2-yard line with 0:01 to play. With the clock starting on the official's whistle, Etling - who rolled out of the pocket and found Chark for a tip-toe grab in the back-right corner of the endzone - was ruled to have received the snap after time had expired.
