Fifth in WBE’s season preview series, a break between the offense and defense. Previously: Expectations, and the complete offense: the QBs, the RBs, the OL, and the WRs. Expect the unexpected? When it comes to picking the NCAA Tournament (as longtime JCCW/WBE readers know), if you’re going after a perfect bracket, you have to pick [...]
This time in 2009, what with Darvin Adams coming off of a nagging camp injury (and being just a dude who looked not-bad at A-Day), it looked like Terrell Zachery’s two career catches were going to be the only career catches for the entire on-field receiving corps against Louisiana Tech. Trooper Taylor’s pedigree (and Chris Todd’s), notwithstanding, no element of the offense was a bigger question mark than the wide receivers.
A week-by-week preview of Auburn’s 2010 opponents. But since you can find straightforward overviews in a half-dozen magazines and a ton of places across the web, these are a little more … disposable. Light. Cheese-puffy. Previously: Arkansas St., Mississippi St., Clemson, South Carolina, UL-Monroe, Kentucky, Arkansas, LSU. Presenting: Ole Miss! What their logo tells us [...]

But that’s OK, because the heavy lifting of camp is finished. We’ve got a backup quarterback. We’ve got a right [...]
Another year churning out five yards a carry (a 1.5 yard increase per attempt on 2008), with hopefully a few less sacks and penalties, and the Ziemba-Berry-Pugh-Isom quartet will graduate from Auburn as one of the most productive, talented, dedicated groups of linemen the Plains has ever seen.
It’s the final go-round. Make it count, guys.
After Tuesday’s flood of scout team- and depth chart-related information, not surprisingly Wednesday toned it back quite a bit; there’s not a whole lot new to report. But here’s what we’ve got, courtesy of Andy Bitter, Jay Tate, Andrew Gribble, and Charles Goldberg: –Most of the important tidbits we got were all injury-related. Deangelo Benton [...]
