Auburn averaged 4.1 yds per carry


When the game was in doubt, in the first quarter, our LBs were stuffing Auburn. When Auburn started running all over us it was primarily because of lazy Dline play. Take the ten yard TD run around Auburn's right side. Lewis Neal started out fine, sealing the edge. When he saw the back head towards the interior he pinched down and lost contain. Then the back broke to the outside, and there was no DE there.

exactly, dline play is what will hurt us. We lack serious depth.


Lets go back to our defense in 11. 3 dbs lead the team in tackles. Not our linebackers. TM7 had 59 solo tackles.

Last season our 2 leading tacklers were linebackers. Minter had 55 solo tackles and was the leading tackler on the team.

One big glaring difference i see is, no eric reid. Who was top 3 in tackles each of the last 2 seasons.
