But no mention of Auburn's running backs or O-line? WTF is this shite?

in all fairness, our RB's are somewhat unproven at this point

Not including Auburn's O-Line is, agreed, a joke.

As for your Running Backs, I would imagine that Tre Mason's declaration for the draft plays no small part in that. As good as Grant and Payne are, they were non-factors against FSU, Georgia and Alabama - three games where you either won in very close matchups, or lost by just a smidge. Take out Marshall as well, because this isn't a debate of "backfields" but of running backs, and he's not one.

62.8% of your rushing yards came from either the QB, or a RB who's leaving.

You're not PRESENTLY in the discussion because of Tre leaving; if he was staying, you'd have a VERY strong case as the best. As it stands, you might have the best at the end of the year, but nothing backs up that claim presently.
