On a historic day for South Carolina, Auburn’s frustrations spilled over to the sideline Saturday.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — No. 15 Auburn's 30-22 loss at South Carolina on Saturday was its first to the Gamecocks in eight tries dating all the way to 1933. Here are three things we learned:

AUBURN — Just score the ball. That was Seth Williams’ answer when asked what Auburn football's offense can do to improve its efficiency in the red zone.

AUBURN — Tank Bigsby thought he played “all right."

AUBURN — Anders Carlson could have hung his head. Flung himself angrily onto the bench. Slammed a helmet down onto the ground. His teammates could have shaken their heads. Avoided him. Even blamed him.

AUBURN — Arkansas and Auburn combined to produce a botched extra point, a kicker with two shots at potential game-winners and a hotly debated spiked ball.

Special teams matter | Auburn's pass defense shaky | Auburn runs big.

AUBURN — Gus Malzahn tried to downplay it during the week, comparing it to when he faced Arkansas State in his first season as Auburn's head coach in 2013.

AUBURN — The best part of Bo Nix’s night at Georgia was watching Tank Bigsby.
