You guessing whether you think it is a run or pass (hint: it's probably a run) is irrelevant.
It's very relevant from a defensive perspective. If the defense knows it's a run, they can focus on their assignments to stop the run and vice versa. The reason why many of our drives stalled the past 4 years or so is because we became one dimensional on 3rd down. So it's very relevant.

Auburn is run heavy. People guess on them all the time. The gash people. Where is more important than what. You saying, I think its a run, so what. WVU thought we were running on third and close in 2011 and we torched them for a 40 yard TD.
You being able to guess between two choices one of which is more likely than the other (70/30) is not really an issue. QED.

That was not true at all last year. Mett's 3rd down efficiency was terrific last year.

The 2013 offense is literally one of the best 3rd down conversion machines I have ever seen. I wouldn't be surprised if it was top-5 all time % wise.

Do you understand how good LSU was on 3rd down last year?
Do you understand that JR had the highest passing efficiency rating in the BCS conferences in 2006?

My point is that Flynn was an excellent passer AND runner.
Flynn wasn't excellent at either. He was good at both.
I guess Manning, Brees, and Brady are predictable b/c they don't run.
