During the 2004 season, the Auburn Tigers had a great combination in Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown. Coach Al Borges schemed to utilize both running backs, often at the same time, to obtain the most of his talented backs. It was a primary reason why Auburn went 13-0 that season and was one of the best teams in college football that season.
Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown combined for 2543-yards on 447 offensive touches, scoring 22 touchdowns. The dynamic combination averaged 5.68 yards per play, scoring a touchdown every 20.3 plays.
Williams and Brown combined for 38 impact plays or plays of 15-yards or more, which included 10 plays of 30-yards or more. That translated to an impact play every 11.8 plays and a big play every 44.7 plays.
The combination of Brown and Williams resulted in 34.4 plays per game, which was 51.9 percent of Auburn’s offensive plays in 2004.

During the 2010 season, Auburn had a great combination of running backs in Michael Dyer and Onterio McCalebb to go along with Heisman winner, Cameron Newton. Coach Gus Malzahn found a way of making sure his running backs had a major impact in Auburn’s offensive game plan. With the departure of Newton, Dyer and McCalebb will see their roles increase in 2011, which could translate to something special.
Michael Dyer and Onterio McCalebb combined for 1970-yards on 282 offensive touches, scoring 15 touchdowns. Auburn’s latest dynamic combination averaged 6.99 yards per play, scoring a touchdown every 18.8 plays.
Dyer and McCalebb combined for 37 impact plays or plays of 15-yards or more, which included 11 plays of 30-yards or more. That translated to an impact play every 7.6 plays and a big play every 25.6 plays.
The combination of Brown and Williams resulted in 20.1 plays per game, which was 29.7 percent of Auburn’s offensive plays in 2010.
Individually, Michael Dyer and Onterio McCalebb might not draw the same attention as Brown and Williams but it’s important to remember Dyer will be a sophomore and McCalebb will be a junior in 2011. As a freshman and sophomore, Dyer and McCalebb had a better average per play by more than a yard per play than the seniors, Brown and Williams. They also had a better ratio for touchdowns, impact plays and big plays. At the end of the day, it just wasn’t about talent but how their talent was utilized within the structure of the offense.
We already know how talented Dyer and McCalebb are but we are still waiting to see just how high their athletic ceiling will become, especially in the good hands of Coach Gus Malzahn.

Chizik will never allow this to happen. He'll find some way to screw this up. Just you wait and see. I can tell because I don't allow past performance to cloud my judgment of what I know is going to happen in the future.
Edit: I'm just poking the bear now. It has been a really slow day at work.
