116 yards of total offense. 38 yards rushing on 30 carries. Dear gosh, no wonder many of our fans still have PTSD from the 2000’s.

ETA: that wasn’t even our lowest total offense output of the season! We had 37 yards of total offense in the Egg Bowl. What a dumpster fire Croom’s offense was.

Any croom apologists who are left should be forced to watch tape of the Auburn game and the Egg Bowl that year (only our offensive series) on loop until they finally come around.

Auburn was ranked #9 in the country and the two points came off a hold in the end zone.

Somehow, that team was two missed chip shot field goals away from being bowl eligible and having a .500 record in SEC play. So I guess it’s a good thing Adam Carlson was a bad kicker, or else we would’ve had Croom for even longer.

Hurricane Ike had knocked out power to Houston. I sat in my truck listening to this on XM radio. And then had to go sleep inside a house that was like at 85F. That was a ****** 12 hour stretch.

And let us not forget the OC Croom wouldn't fire to save his job: The ever ineffective, Woody McCorvey. Averaged somewhere around 12 points per game in SEC games over 5 years.

Sadly, I predicted that score back then on Wayne's Auburn Board, 3-2. I was being facetious, wasn't impressed with either team at that point. Sitting in the stands and watching the game, wish I'd have betted with my gut....
