re: Auburn Rivals Rankings

Cam Newton. They dont have anything else. Dyer looks like he can be good if they get a line next year.

Dyer is solid and would have a 1k rushing total this year if he didn't get dinged up for a couple of games.

Auburn has a lot more offense than just Newton. We'd be running a completely different offense if we had Trotter and the offense would still be very solid, obviously not as good as it is now but the drop off wouldn't be as huge as people seem to think.

Rivals rankings has rarely had Auburn in a good light and as obvious the rankings are not panning out. I do think Auburn is playing as good as it can with the recruits and talent it has right now. In a couple of years the talent will be where it needs to be where we can rely on the defense more instead of simply having to outscore teams.

Also to add if you look at recruiting rankings vs how teams actually end up in the SEC it is an interesting tale.

If AU had lsu or bama's receivers chizik doesn't approve the 4th and 3 pass. With Darvin Adams he does.
