Maybe. I've still seen no sideline shot, and the sideline cameras might have been retasked for "end of game" shots and not watching the sidelines during the runback.

One shot didn't have the straight on angle, but it sure looked like he was in-bounds all the way down.

I'm an F and I know for a fact that the second the kick's blocked, I'm sprinting for the sideline -- so while the L is not there, it could very well be the case the F is on the sideline (albeit many yards away).

An unbelievable ending, that boils down to a single fact; the Auburn team kept their head in the game up to the ACTUAL end, Alabama was thinking about Overtime.

And the Auburn coach put his team in a position to win by kicking the game tying extra point instead of going for 2.

And the Alabama coach put his team in position to lose when he went for it on fourth down with 5 minutes left, instead of kicking a 30 yard field goal to make it a 10 point game. However he probably had zero confidence in his kicker at that time.

Yet he chose to attempt a 57-yard field goal over a hail mary?

I guess hindsight makes it easy.
