We need to pick it up!!!!

I don't know whether it's the coaching or the players, but the Auburn Tigers have some work to do before we play LSU week 4 of the college football season. The first week we had Louisiana-Monroe, piece of cake. We beat them 34-0. Week 2 was against Southern Miss, a little bit more difficult. We still won, the score was just 27-13. But Week 3 was embarrassing. The first quarter was nothing but punt after punt after punt from both teams! The second quarter Auburn drives to the 30-ish yard line and settles for a field goal which makes the score 3-0. After halftime it looked like things were pulling towards Auburn's favor... until we were called for a holding in the endzone which forced a safety!!! So it's now 3-2 and it would remain that way for the rest of the game. Brad Lester suffered a neck injury during the game and is questionable about whether he will play next week. Both defenses had a very, very good game and look promising for the rest of the year, but if Auburn wants to hang on to their winning streak their offense is going to have to a) STOP FUMBLING THE BALL and b) protect the quarterback. Let's see if we can keep up the winning streak and go for another undefeated year.
