Run the freaking ball down opponents throats. It may not be real pretty but it gets the job done and wins football games. With this strong Oline the running backs we have( Buga) it should add up to lots of wins. I think 9 or 10... Geaux tigers!!!!

Pound the rock to set up playaction. I like it

One thing though, we can actually run some spread read option with these QBs. Will be nice to have in the play book again, we will be dangerous on O, I bet that!

We'll do like we did in 2011. We literally ran the ball 68% of the time. For reference, Auburn ran the ball 72% of the time last year.

We ran it 64% of the time in 2010 to 11 wins.

I'd say with our defense, OL, and backfield (including the QBs), we should run our way to 10-11 wins.

Yes, he most certainly will.

Why?

Because there is only one DC in the nation that knows what to do when dozen NFL caliber DBs find themselves on the same college team.

With Cameron calling the plays, we won't rely on QB for everything but we will throw the ball also. Cam knows we have too many weapons at WR and at TE not to throw it. He won't put it on the QB to win the whole game, or press the pass if it's not working though. A lot at stake in recruiting guys like Tyrone Johnson and George Campbell to not even attempt to throw the ball. That could seal the deal for schools trying to get those guys. No way we revert back to the poor one dimensional offense we used to have now that we have Cam. I'm looking for 60-65% run and 35-40% pass ratio.

Win ugly with good players. At the end it doesnt matter how you get there but it would be nice to look good doing it. Also hope the big lovable baffoon has been working on his clock management skills during the off season.

It's not that simple. We have proven that without a passing game we can't win because of the 9 man fronts.

With dangerous passing game we're free to run the ball. Without, it's like playing Red Rover.

What Miles does best is win! He has won running the ball and won throwing the ball. If we can run, we will. If we can throw, we will. If we can do both, we will.

With more and more teams going small and athletic to defend the spread most teams are running these days, not really a bad idea to pound the little guys with some power running.
