It is a moot point because a RB is only as good as his line and LSU will have the better line. AU can keep their better RBs. LSU will take the better rushing game.
Last year was the first time, since 2008, that LSU had a better rushing game...
I still expect them to have the better OLINE but production will be pretty close.

Alright, I'm not going to argue. The stats speak for themselves but we are past that..
A random question.. What type of offense are yall running next year?

Multiple sets, but I think Loeffler prefers Pro-style

RB- Bama, USC, Ark, GA/LSU
The touch back argument for kickers is no longer important. This year only the worst kickers will not be kicking it into the end zone.

What do auburn fans think about mcalebb and pro style? think he can succeed with that type of running game instead of the spread?

He can still succeed on the outside running plays. Stretches, tosses, and sweeps should still be successful

I'd be lying if I said I knew...
Sorry, I have no idea. It'll be something to keep an eye on for sure.

For the 2012 season it won't be, but it was very important last year.

So only Foster?
He was lucky to make it to the 15

2009 LSU had no rushing game at all because the O-line was garbage. Charles Scott went from 1000 yards the year before to barely any.
2010 Auburn had a stacked O-line + Cam + Dyer. Not many teams rushed better than AU that year.
2011 LSU had a good O-line and good backs. AU had a bad O-line and good backs.
2012 LSU returns a good O-line and good backs. AU returns an older (90% chances that means better) O-line, but loses their best back. LSU will probably still have the better rushing game unless we really decide to air it out (like that will ever happen. I should stop dreaming).
I suspect they will be similar in numbers because I expect both teams to run well and run a lot. I still expect LSU to have one of the best rushing games in the conference.

Not sure, I don't remember all the kickers from other teams.
I think it is a shame that there will be alot more touch backs. The kickoff return/coverage is a very exciting play, also the only chance several guys have each game to hit someone.

Actually the opposite. We could start 2 RS-Fr, 2 RS-So, and 1 Tr-So. They're all more talented than the guys last year. The one's last year were veterans that had no business starting
Posted on 3/25/12 at 9:29 pm to GeauxWarTigers
The AU OL will be younger than last year.

Either way, y'all will be better on o-line. I'm sure these guys got a fair amount of playing time last year and they have an extra year of experience and training under their belt. Plus the old scrubs that shouldn't have been starting will be gone.

Sometimes youth is a bonus. Especially If the guys they are replacing had injuries or knee problems that slowed them down.

Exactly. I wasn't debating that they'd be better, I think they'll be much better, I was just saying there still isn't experience that much experience

QB- Arkansas
RB- South Caroline, Bama, LSU
WR- Tennessee? Overall maybe the weakest position in the league next year, or at least at this point the least experienced. Tenn may not even be the right answer on this one, but who is?
OL- Bama, LSU
TE- no clue
DE- LSU, South Carolina. LSU by a wide margin though, regardless of how good Clowney is.
DT- Don't know. Losing Brockers hurts LSU, even if I think we have some great players that can step up.
LB- UGA
Secondary- LSU (easier to just include the entire secondary than to break it down because everyone is losing somebody.
ST- LSU, easily.
