To say Auburn’s performance against the run Saturday was bad would be an understatement.
No. 9 Ole Miss ran all over the Tigers for 448 rushing yards, the most Auburn has allowed in at least two decades. It marked only the fourth time Auburn has given up 400 rush yards in a game in the past two decades, as Wisconsin and LSU both ran wild in 2015, and Arkansas did so in 2002.
By comparison, only four other teams in the FBS have rushed for more yards in a game this year in Air Force, Army, Navy and North Texas. Those programs have combined for six performances with more than 448 rush yards, and three of them came against FCS teams. None of those teams had more than two 100-yard rushers in those games. Ole Miss’ yards per carry average Saturday is also the same as Alabama’s nation-leading 6.5 yards per carry average.
“There were some different looks that they gave us, but they were running hard,” Auburn head coach Bryan Harsin said. “The backs ran hard. The quarterback, him being a threat, I thought, helped their inside zone as well. They hit a few sweeps early in the game, some big plays on sweeps. Then they had a good balance — they were outside, they were inside, quarterback was pulling it.”
