Other than Gus Bus, what explains this?
Serious question.

And then time ended. Nothing more to see. All you need to know about anything is contained in those stats.

Nothing else does. It was all Malzahn. No new players or anything. We had the same QB from the year before (Chris Todd) and he was abysmal in 2008. He set the Auburn record for TD passes in 2009.

What happened last year?
Have you not read any of the Scarbinsky articles or AL.com articles or heard from Auburn posters on how after the third game of the season last year (Clemson), Chizik held a meeting with Chizik and told him to scrap the HUNH? Malzahn was very disappointed and our offense struggled after that. It didn't help that we had the worst offensive line in Auburn history due to Tuberville not recruiting any good lineman in 08'.
Why do you think Malzahn took a 500,000 dollar paycut to be the head coach of Arky State?

"Chizik seemed to change after the national title. It’s not uncommon for coaches to write books after that kind of season, but his - “All In: What It Takes to Be the Best” - was far more about him than about the team.
On the field in 2011, Chizik began to assert himself more in the game plans, especially on offense, where he wanted Malzahn to slow down the offense to protect the defense. Chizik’s meddling combined with Malzahn’s desire to be a head coach led to Malzahn taking a pay cut to take over at Arkansas State. His 8-3 Red Wolves will play Saturday against Middle Tennessee for the Sun Belt title.
Auburn did manage to win ball-control defensive struggles against South Carolina and Florida last season, which helped reinforce Chizik’s belief that it was time to ditch the spread offense in favor of more of a pro style. After Malzahn left, Chizik completed the switch by hiring Scot Loeffler as offensive coordinator.
How did hiring a coach with one year’s experience as a coordinator, combined with Chizik’s continuing involvement in the offense, work out? Auburn scored 224 points in 12 games this season. During the 2010 regular season, the Tigers scored 499 points."

I apologize if I'm not impressed.

Pure speculation.
Fact - Malzahn was offensive coordinator when Auburn's offense was ranked #100 in the country.
He was #100 when his developed quarterbacks, offensive linemen, and receivers were taking over.

Yards and points are nice but where are the wins? He was a good OC that luked into a GREAT QB to run his offense but what about the years he can't find a great mobile QB. He might have an occasional 9 win season but he won't win more than 8 with his offense on average IMO.
