Scarbinsky: Trolled by Kiffin, rolled by Alabama: Auburn’s nightmare isn’t over yet

When you’ve walked in the desert as long as Auburn football has, it’s easy to mistake a mirage for an oasis and dismiss an oasis as a mirage. This is the way the 2022 Auburn football season ended on the field Saturday in enemy territory as the program’s nightmare continued. Alabama 49, Auburn 27 was the least of the Tigers’ worries. Before and after kickoff, they learned some hard lessons in their search for a way out and a way up. Lane Kiffin ain’t coming, Nick Saban isn’t going away and the Tigers will be lucky if the best thing to happen to them in years, Carnell Williams, doesn’t look for an exit himself. The Tigers have gone five years without a trip to the SEC Championship Game, matching the program’s longest droughts from 1992-96 and from 2005-09.They just completed their second three-game losing streak in the Iron Bowl in the last nine years. When your rival extends its record of 10-win seasons to 15 straight years and keeps its thin playoff hopes alive, at your expense, another body of water enters the chat. Consider your next move carefully, Auburn, or that pending oasis may not be a mirage. Choose poorly, and it could be a real cesspool.
