Auburn Briefing: It was not a bad dream

Auburn did in fact lose to New Mexico State yesterday.

Nick Saban lost to Louisiana-Monroe in his first season at Alabama.

That is likely what many Auburn fans said over and over again before their heads hit the pillow last night.

Hugh Freeze has a similar story now as Auburn fell 31-10 at the hands of New Mexico State. The Tigers were not able to do much of anything.

Auburn cannot dwell on it long, however, as it is now Iron Bowl week. The focus must completely shift to Alabama if the Tigers want to have a chance at pulling off the upset.
