Don't forget the poor clock mismanagement of 2008-Auburn

Watching the end of the game; I had deja vu of the same chinese fire drill in 2008. If you recall, Les and the coaching staff had no clue of time left and ended up running 20 seconds off the clock with Flynn throwing a pass with 4 seconds left and no timeouts. Fortunately, that time it was completed. Note: It was not a designed play as he replied in post game interviews that he did not realize the clock was still running. Just because it worked does not mean it was the right call....When you play with fire, you will get burned. I have been a big fan of Les' gambler mentality with fake FGs, converting 4th downs, etc. but failing to manage the game is unexcuseable. As for Crowton, the only time he has had success in coaching is with a pro-style qb(La Tech and BYU). It does not take a rocket scientist to see that they have not recruited this type of QB and he should have adapted his philosophy to his players' ability. He has shown that this is not his mentality and needs to go..
