BAMA’S Answer to Tate
We All know that BAMA has had a marquees season in 2009, they are undefeated after all. Tide tail back Mark Ingram is the one statement that can be made for them. Ingram’s numbers for the season are as follows; 1399 Total yards to-date, 12 Touchdowns, Ingram is averaging 6.8 yards a carry and roughly 128 yards a game through 11 games.
D. Adams (WR) Shoulder Prob Fri E. Freeman (LB) Concussion Ques Fri A. Herring (LB) Foot Ques Fri D. Cole (DB) Foot Ques Fri Z. Etheridge (S) Neck out for season S. Pybus (LB) out for season H. Gaston (LB) out indefinitely M. Billings (WR) out for season A. Savage (DB) out for season M. McNeil (S) Leg Out indefinitely. Auburn – Will use a lot of miss direction and movement to try to confuse BAMA’s Defense and Todd (Auburn QB) can and will complete passes if given a window..
TIDE & TIGER History TIGERS May Need More Than A Shoulder To Cry On Auburn will play host to the Crimson Tide tonight at Jordan-Hare Stadium. For those of you that don’t know this, Jordan-Hare Stadium is the one SEC venue that Coach Nick Saban has not lassoed a win; in (3) trips there with LSU all resulting in losses and (1) with the TIDE in 2007. The last trip there just happens to be BAMA’s last regular season loss.
Auburn’s Run Production TIGER tail back Ben Tate made the statement a couple weeks ago that he “thinks he’s the best running back”, well to his credit; he does run pretty good. Tate’s season numbers are as follows; 1209 Total yards to-date, 8 touchdowns, averaging 5.4 yards a carry and roughly 110 yards a game. Those are some fairly good numbers for the Tiger tailback but not the best.
