Nix leads No. 22 Auburn to 1st win at LSU since ’99, 24-19

Associated Press  

— Bo Nix ducked, dodged and danced away from pressure until he wore LSU out and left the field celebrating Auburn’s first triumph in Death Valley in more than two decades. The touchdown pulled Auburn to 19-17 early in the fourth quarter, and that score stood until Nix led a 92-yard, 11-play, winning drive highlighted by Hunter’s 44-yard run on a pitch to the left side. “We have to score touchdowns instead of field goals.” Auburn’s decision to try a surprise onside kick to start the second half backfired and led to an LSU field goal.
