re: What's with this myth of Auburn not sharing the carries on offense?

What I really like about this is how you leave out that the #2 running back isn't one at all, most, if not all of these years. It's the QB who will get at least 50 "rushes" a year on scrambles alone when pass plays break down.

So please, tell us again how much Malzahn likes to spread the ball to the running backs.

2009 and 2011 include running backs as #2.

I don't know if you're new to football or not, but the vast majority of Cam Newton and Nick Marshall's rushes came on design plays. That's kind of how the Auburn offense was run through the altered wildcat and read-option.

That's the cool thing about offense, bro. You don't have to just spread the carries through running backs. Quarterbacks, running backs AND wide receivers can all contribute, just like Gus Malzahn wants them to.
