AU had 7 RBs selected in the first round of the NFL draft (and plenty in the 2nd as well).
Does any other SEC school have at least half that many? Like 4 maybe?
Also, 2 picks that went #1 overall...

Jamal Lewis and Arian Foster are better NFL running backs than anyone to come out of Auburn.

Ignoring the old guys that I don't know anything about, some of our best college rb's were:
JJ Johnson
Keffer Mcgee
Jerious Norwood
Anthony Dixon
?
Not sure who else I would put on there

Arian Foster based on NFL production i hope b/c college he wasn't even top five in his own division.

nd he stepped up against LSU when we needed him.
No, Julio stepped up when PP cramped up. Coffee was your back in 08, and we won in 2010. So if stepping up is losing or barely contributing to a 70 yd catch and run, then yeah, he stepped up.

Ingram had 22 carries for 144 yards in that game. Julio Jones had the play of the game but we came out on the opening drive of the 2nd half and had Ingram run it right down your throat.

He's like TN's second all time leading rusher. He was projected to go second or third round after his junior year, came back for his senior season, played sparingly under Clawson and Fulmer and went undrafted.
He's TN 2nd all time leading rusher because he started for all 4 years. He only rushed for over 1k yards once, his junior season. His total yards go 879 frsh, 322 soph, 1193 junior, 566 senior. Not to mention he had a fumbling problem. Don't act like he was some diamond in the rough, he sucked in the SEC compared to how he does now. I'm more inclinded to say it had something to do with Kubiak's offensive scheme. and...::cough:... steroids
Edit TN 2nd all time rush yard

He was awesome until his senior season, when our entire offense went for dead last in the country and we were starting two 260 lb walk ons on the O-Line.
