My point is that Gus offenses can be stopped. 2011 is a great example of this.
Yea, when they don't have much talent, or are replacing 7 starters...or in this case, both.

Clint Moseley and Barrett Trotter had to replace Cam Newton. Auburn also had to replace 4 starting offensive linemen (Lee Ziemba, Ryan Pugh, Byron Isom, and Mike Berry), Darvin Adams, Terrell Zachery, and Eric Smith. Did I mention that AJ Greene and John Sullen were two of the guys replacing offensive linemen? They sucked.

The scheme is what lead Auburn to winning 8 games. Without Gus Malzahn's offense, I don't want to even think of the offensive production.

Yep. We probably win 5 games in 2011 with just about any other OC. We lost almost our entire Oline, Cam, our best receiver and our hback. Gus's schemes were about all we had going for us that year.
