Rushing Stats....I wouldn't have believed this had I not seen it....

SEC Rushers...

Auburn has the #1 and #2 Rusher in the SEC.  Why Dyer isn't listed ahead of Ridley, with more than a yard per carry better avg I don't know.  Dyer is the #2 rusher in the SEC...our Fr. and JUCO transfer QB lead the league in rushing.  Then McCaleb is back there sucking wind at #11.  Our change of pace speed back is #11.  Fucking shit!   Has this happened since the early 80s?

That is surprising. I think Locke is the scariest on each touch but would not like to fend off Dyer grinding and popping out through a seam either. And he is tougher and more durable than Lattimore at this point too IMO.

Can't be right. Where's Mark Ingram?

I thought Fast & Furious and whatever their 3rd string is are supposed to bethe three best rushers in the SEC?

Saw on ITAT a comparison between Dyer and Lattimore.  With about 20 fewer attempts,  Dyer holds the edge by a few yards.

Dyer will likely hit 1000 yds rushing, and currently has 4 games with single digit attempts.  Has only 2 games with 20+ attampts.   Fucking unbelievable.

It is unbelievable. Dyer does seem to be hitting his stride and he looks so fast doing it. I be excited. This offense could be damn close to 4000(see StatTiger thread) yards rushing before our trip to ATL. Thats just crazy sick.

[Buzz Killington]

The scariest part is that he is still visibly limping when he runs.  This kid has the potential to be a great one.

You got those Wolf Boy pictures, from The Globe, ready?

Thing that I see with him every time he gets the ball is he does not seem to go down with an arm tackle or by contact.  He has a chance to be a very special one.  I'm glad Arkansas was too deep at RB to want him.

No kidding, the kids has some major strength; aint nothing but muscle. Remember, Petrino didn't want him. Dyer has terrible character.
