Sure, the pass catchers didn't catch as many passes as we wanted, but they also failed to step up as a whole in the mold of past Malzahn receivers.
A lot is made of Auburn's streak of 1000 yard rushers and deservedly so. It's never been done seven straight years in the SEC before. And it turns out Gus Malzahn has had a hand in most of that success. He's been on the sideline each of the last seven years except for 2012, the year Tre Mason eked out 1002 yards.
But there's another mark Malzahn is pretty good at reaching.
