The home Tigers continue to kick to LSU's Patrick Peterson, and he continues to display why that's a terrible idea. (Can he play quarterback?) Peterson returns Auburn's kickoff 33 yards and LSU takes over at their own 44. The visiting Tigers go three-and-out in rapid and ineffectual fashion. Auburn's answering drive converts one third down, but Mario Fannin fumbles at midfield.
The two teams of Tigers trade four more futile drives, and the fourth quarter gets underway. Kelvin Sheppard somehow manages to knock Newton down behind the line of scrimmage, and Auburn punts. LSU gets the ball back with 13:29 remaining in the game. A Stevan Ridley rush, a Jordan Jefferson scoot ... and then freshman Spencer Ware gets his halfback option on, flinging a 39-yard touchdown pass to Rueben Randle, who makes the catch under heavy duress. It is beautiful.
With 12:59 remaining in the game, LSU and Auburn are tied on the Plains, 17-17.
