From al.com:
Auburn was left nursing a 21-20 lead going into the fourth.
"We didn't play with a lot of passion, and I don't understand that," Saban said.
That changed late.
The Tigers had a solid chance to extend the lead after taking over at Alabama's 44 following yet another defensive stand. But the Tide defense made it's best stand of the day, tackling Ben Tate for a 7-yard loss and sacking Todd.
That set the stage for McElroy, who must have won over even his most ardent doubters with the poise and precision he displayed as the clock wound down.
Afterward, Saban headed off the field with his right index finger raised toward 'Bama fans. A fan in an Auburn orange shirt said, "Undefeated, right?"
Saban tilted his head, expressionless, and walked into the tunnel, undefeated again.
