Utah State had been in control of the Auburn Tigers for most of their game Saturday, but when Auburn took a 28-24 lead, it looked like order was finally going to be restored to the world. Instead, Utah State has scored two unanswered touchdowns and now leads the Tigers by a score of 38-28 with 3:38 remaining in the fourth quarter. Those Tigers fans who lack faith have already headed for the exits.
Auburn Vs. Utah State Score: Aggies Lead 38-28 Late In Fourth Quarter
During Utah State's most recent touchdown drive, it appeared that Auburn was going to hold them to a field goal attempt. The field goal was a fake, though, and D.J. Tialavea made a fantastic catch to set up a first and goal after converting a fourth and eight. The play was reviewed, but the replay confirmed that Tialavea got his hands under the ball and completed a catch to convert the first down.
Robert Turbin eventually converted the touchdown for the Aggies on a one yard run, pushing the score to 38-28. The Tigers will now have to score twice in less than four minutes to save face and avoid an embarrassing home loss against a team that struggles to put together winning seasons in the WAC.
