Auburn's fourth overtime try came before the Tide's, and Auburn QB TJ Finley's pass in the end zone was broken up by Alabama defensive back Kool-Aid McKinstry.
Alabama trailed for the long majority of the game, only tying the game with 24 seconds left on a 28-yard touchdown pass from Young to Ja'Corey Bryant. That sent the game to overtime, where the teams traded touchdowns through the first three overtimes before the game-deciding fourth.
