I read this over on Auburn's scout.com website:

In the last 30 years, only Michigan and Nebraska have fielded more 1000-yard rushers than Auburn.

Every Auburn running back that has rushed for 1000-yards has been drafted into the NFL.

Joe Cribbs

James Brooks

Bo Jackson

Brent Fullwood

James Bostic

Stephen Davis

Rudi Johnson

Ronnie Brown

Carnell Williams

Kenny Irons

Since 1970, 22 Auburn running backs have been drafted into the NFL.

Not included in the above list of 1000-yard rushers but good enough to be drafted into the NFL:

Mike Zofko
Williams Andrews
Chester Willis
George Peoples
Lionel James
Tim Jessie
Tommy Agee (FB)
Reggie Ware (FB)
James Joseph
Kevin McLeod (FB)
Fred Beasley
Heath Evans (FB)

During this current decade, an Auburn running back has rushed for 100-yards in a game on 54 occasions.
