Auburn’s running back room is deep and talented but who will be “the guy” for the Tigers?
After having at least one 1,000-yard rusher for an SEC-record nine consecutive seasons, Auburn football has failed to produce such a player in the last two seasons. To make matters worse, JaTarvious “Boobee” Whitlow, the team’s leading rusher for the last two seasons, decided to enter the NCAA transfer portal this February.
So, with all of these things going against Auburn, why do I feel so confident about the Tigers’ rushing game in 2020?
