A couple quick notes:
-they are running the ball 71% of the time
-they've had 135 offensive plays in 2 games so still fairly fast paced
-of their 7 offensive TDs, 5 are on the ground
-they have 3 RBs w/ better than 5ypc and one of them is at over 11ypc
-giving up 443 ypg but only 16.5 ppg

Auburns lack of a good passing QB may be what gets us over the hump in a malzhan led offense. Defending 65 plays is a lot easier than the 85 he used to shoot for in a game.

We tackle well if and when there is somebody home. If we don't have the breakdowns like we did v OSU we have a chance at a very good defensive performance Saturday.
