Auburn wide receiver Jason Smith made an incredible 77-yard touchdown catch after tipping the ball twice.
On third-and-12 from Auburn's 23-yard line, Smith split Alabama's safeties near midfield, tipping a Jeremy Johnson throw up in the air twice before coming down with his first career touchdown catch.
The longest offensive play of the season for Auburn cut the Alabama lead to 19-13 with 4:27 to go in the third quarter.
It was Auburn's longest scoring pass in Iron Bowl history and the longest for the Tigers since Nick Marshall connected with Sammie Coates for 88 yards against Arkansas in 2013.
