Tate gives you the best chance to win in my mind.

I agree but with Tate and "the flash" we have a great 1-2 combo. WDE.

Tate.
I think Tate wearing them down early opens the door for big plays from OM late.
I'm interested to see what role Smith will play. Luper said he wants to cut back the number of carries for OM.

All I have heard from you boogs is that Ben Tate is better than any tailback on UA's team now he is not even the best on AU's.

Onterio had an impressive debut, but it will interesting to see how his speed translates against bigger stronger faster SEC defenses.

I don't think it matters... both will play key roles.

Don't really think it matters. All are decent backs, not any great ones, not any crappy ones.

Tate
The guy you mentioned won't last in the SEC as a feature back. 10-12 carries a game max.

too earlier to say on McCalleb, but if he can stay healthy there's no reason he won't be better than "decent".

Onterio is not an everydown back.

Wade Christopher. Defenses wouldn't show up. Most people I've ever known wouldn't seriously die to play against Auburn.

not mccalebb to small bout 165 he is more of a roll player tate is more skilled better all around maybe auburn can do a whole cj spiller james davis (THUNDER and LIGHTNING) kind of rotation like at clemson

Onterio is heavier now he is around 175 depending who you ask. That said I agree he is not an ever down back in the SEC.
Tate is an every down type of back, good north south runner good speed can put a good hit on someone when needed.
Eric Smith coming in is expected to really add another level to the offense. He will play some 3 slot or hybrid receiver back type stuff. Reportedly he is a bruiser type back and will run over cornerbacks trying to tackle him. He will help in the short yardage situations where it is 3rd and 1 and you may want to just chisel out a yard.
