SEC West Conference - Auburn Tigers Preview
QB Brandon Cox is back to lead the unit after throwing for 2324 yards with a 15/8 TD/INT ratio. The SEC's leading rusher in '05, RB Kenny Irons (1293 Yards), is also back to wreak havoc on opposing defenses. His workload will be heavy at first due to the unit's lack of an experienced WR corps. The O-Line returns six hogs with starting experience.
Auburn's defensive front seven looks a bit raw for my taste, but there's no doubt these guys are simmering with enormous potential. The cream of this defensive crop is the secondary that returns almost completely intact. Look for them to help ease the front seven's transition, and eventually turn this group into one of the better defensive units in the country.

After going a perfect 13-0 in 2004 and earning the #2 slot in the AP Poll, the Tigers took the field in 2005 with some glaring question marks. Their top tier RB corps was completely wiped out, and their new QB was still wet behind the ears. Still, the Tigers put forth an excellent campaign, and just missed out on going back to the SEC Title game. This bodes well for what lies ahead for Auburn in 2006.
