AGAINST THE SUN BELT Auburn has played five of the nine teams currently in the Sun Belt Conference at least one time, and has never lost, with a 15-0 record. Nearly half of the 15 games have been played against ULM, with Auburn holding a 7-0 record against the Warhawks. The Tigers are 4-0 against Louisiana-Lafayette, 2-0 against Arkansas State and Western Kentucky and have one win against North Texas. ON THIS DATE Auburn has an all-time record of 8-3-1 on Oct. 2.

2010 Auburn Football Game Notes 4-0 .... AGAIN Auburn’s 4-0 start marks the second straight season that the Tigers have started 4-0, and the fourth time in the last seven years. Auburn has now started 4-0 in eight of the past 18 years and 29 times in its history. COMEBACK KIDS Auburn has overcome double-digit deficits to win in each of the last two games. The Tigers trailed Clemson 17-0 in the second quarter Sept. 18 before winning 27-24 in overtime, and trailed South Carolina 20-7 in the second period last Saturday before rallying for a 35-27 victory. This is just the third time since 1970 that Auburn has had two wins in the same season while overcoming double digit deficits, and the first time it happened in consecutive games. In 1997, Auburn overcame 11-point deficits to beat both Alabama in the Iron Bowl and Clemson in the Peach Bowl. In 1972, Auburn trailed Georgia Tech by 14 and Alabama by 16 in the Punt Bama Punt game before winning both contests. The victory over Clemson also marked the first time that Auburn overcame a deficit of at least 17 points to win since Sept. 28, 2002, when the Tigers trailed Syracuse 17-0 at Jordan-Hare Stadium before coming back to win 37-34 in three overtimes. It was just Auburn’s fourth 17point deficit overcome in a victory since 1970. The Tigers now have six come-from-behind victories in the past two seasons under head coach Gene Chizik, including three this season. Year 2010 2010 1997 1997 1972 1972

IN A RUSH Auburn’s dominated South Carolina on the ground last Saturday, totaling 334 yards rushing against the SEC’s leading rushing defense. Cameron Newton led the way with 176 yards rushing against a Gamecock defense that had allowed just 179 yards in its first three games combined. Michael Dyer rushed for an even 100 yards, giving Auburn two 100-yard rushers in the same game for the first time since Ben Tate and Onterio McCalebb achieved the feat last season against Mississippi State. The game against South Carolina marked the fourth time in 17 games under Gus Malzahn that Auburn has rushed for at least 300 yards. Prior to Malzahn’s arrival, Auburn had just four 300-yard rushing games in the previous six seasons combined.
OFFENSE KEEPS ROLLING Auburn’s offense continues to shine under second-year offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn, as the Tigers rank seventh nationally in rushing offense (278.0) and tied for 17th in total offense (468.0). In 17 games under Malzahn, Auburn has totaled at least 500 yards of offense five times. Prior to Malzahn’s arrival in 2009, Auburn hadn’t had a single 500-yard game since the 2005 Georgia game - a streak of 40 games. PASSING FANCY Auburn currently ranks second in the nation in passing efficiency with a rating of 185.48, thanks largely to two key factors. First, the Tigers have scored touchdowns on 12.5 percent of their pass attempts, which leads the nation. Only six other schools have thrown TD passes on at least 10 percent of their attempts. Second, the Tigers are second in the nation with an average of 10.56 yards per attempt, trailing only Navy. Only two other schools average at least 10 yards per attempt. Individually, Cameron Newton leads the SEC and ranks fourth in the country with a rating of 182.46, thanks largely to his nation-best 13.24 touchdown percentage, and his average of 10.04 yards per pass attempt, which is No. 5 in the country. SCOOTIN’ NEWTON Junior quarterback Cameron Newton has been impressive running the ball this season, leading the SEC and ranking 11th nationally in rushing (third among quarterback), averaging 121.3 yards per game. In his debut, Newton posted the second-highest rushing total ever for an Auburn quarterback, gaining 171 yards and two touchdowns against Arkansas State. He topped that against South Carolina, going for 176 yards and three scores. Newton, who has touchdown runs of 71 and 54 yards this season, is already just the second quarterback in Auburn history to have multiple 100-yard rushing games, joining Phil Gargis, who had four from 1974-76. HE CAN THROW, TOO Cameron Newton hasn’t just excelled with his feet, but also throwing the ball. Newton ranks second nationally in passing efficiency (182.46) and is the first quarterback in school history to throw at least two touchdown passes in each of the first four games of a season. No other quarterback had even done that in the first three games. Newton has accounted for five TDs in a game twice this season (vs. Arkansas State and South Carolina) and was named SEC Offensive Player of the Week after his performance against Arkansas State. In addition to his rushing and passing efficiency numbers, he ranks second in the SEC and 18th nationally in total offense (292.0), seventh in the league in all-purpose yardage (126.8) and tied for ninth in scoring (7.5).
SEC SUCCESS Since the 2004 season, Auburn has won 33 of its 50 Southeastern Conference games and 34 of its 51 games against SEC schools, including the 2004 SEC Championship game victory over Tennessee. Auburn’s success against conference schools dates back beyond 2004, however, as since the start of the 2000 season, the Tigers have the fourth best record among the 12 league schools in regular season conference games. The following are the combined conference records of the 12 SEC schools from 2000-10.

THREE FOR 70 Auburn has continued to excel in the running game by utilizing a balanced attack. The Tigers have three of the top 11 individual rushers in the SEC this season, with all three averaging at least 70 yards per game. Cameron Newton leads the conference and ranks 11th nationally averaging 121.3 yards per game, while Michael Dyer (78.0) and Onterio McCalebb (70.0) rank ninth and 11th, respectively, in the SEC in rushing. Auburn is one of just three schools nationally that has three players averaging at least 70 yards rushing per game, joining Air Force and Nebraska. STRIKING QUICKLY Of Auburn’s 20 scoring drives in regulation this season, nine have taken less than two minutes off the clock, and only two have taken more than four minutes. Seven of the 20 have used four plays or fewer. The Tigers’ average scoring drive has covered 58.2 yards per drive, but has taken an average of just 2:21 per drive. HOLDING ON LATE Auburn has struck quickly in first-quarter drives this year, and as a result, the Tigers have averaged just 4:49 in time of possession in the opening period this season. In the second half, however, the Tigers have controlled the clock, holding the ball for an averag of 8:10 in the third quarter and 8:09 in the fourth quarter this season. BIG PLAYS The Tigers have run 11 plays already this season that covered at least 35 yards, including seven that resulted in touchdowns. In fact, Auburn’s 18 touchdown plays have averaged 23.8 yards per play this season. Last season, Auburn had 22 plays of at least 35 yards. In 2008, before Gus Malzahn’s arrival, the Tigers had just nine plays that covered 35 or more yards all season. EXPERIENCED O-LINE PAVES THE WAY Auburn has one of the most experienced if not one of the best offensive lines in the country, with four starters returning who have combined to make 125 career starts. Senior All-American candidate and Outland Trophy watch list candidate Lee Ziemba has started all 42 games at tackle since arriving as a true freshman, while center Ryan Pugh, a Rimington Trophy candidate, has made 36 starts since his true freshman season. Guards Mike Berry (25 starts) and Byron Isom (22 starts) round out the experienced group. Auburn’s offensive line was ranked as the fifth-best OL unit in the country by Phil Steele and Lindy’s in their preseason publications.
FOURTH QUARTER DEFENSE Auburn’s defense has stepped up late in games, as the Tigers have allowed just 10 points in the fourth quarter and overtime this season while shutting out both of their SEC opponents. Auburn has held opponents to 1-of-12 on thirddown conversion attempts in the fourth quarter and overtime and forced turnovers on all four of South Carolina’s fourth-quarter possessions last Saturday. STOPPING THE RUN Auburn’s defense has performed well against the run this season, ranking third in the SEC and tied for 27th nationally in rushing defense, allowing just 106.5 yards per game. Auburn has held five of its last eight opponents to less than 100 yards rushing dating back to the end of the 2009 season. The Tigers limited South Carolina’s Marcus Lattimore, who entered the game ranked second in the SEC averaging 111.0 yards rushing per game, to just 33 yards on 14 carries. BEHIND ENEMY LINES Auburn’s defense has excelled at getting into the opposition’s backfield, as the Tigers lead the SEC and rank ninth nationally in tackles for loss, averaging 8.25 per game. Individually, Nick Fairley leads the league and is tied for seventh in the nation with 8.5 tackles for loss including four sacks, while Antoine Carter is next with 5.0 tackles for loss. Thirteen different players have recorded tackles for losses this season for Auburn, including seven players with at least two. FAIRLEY DOMINANT Nick Fairley has emerged as a force at defensive tackle for Auburn, leading the SEC in both sacks (4.0) and tackles for loss (8.5). His four sacks are tied for 11th most in the country and his 8.5 tackles for loss is tied for sixth most. Fairley has at least 1.5 tackles for loss in every game this season, and was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week for his performance at Mississippi State, where he totaled five tackles including 2.5 for losses and 1.5 sacks, an interception, a fumble recovery and three quarterback hurries. DYNAMIC DUO Defensive end Antoine Carter has joined forces with Nick Fairley on Auburn’s defensive line to wreak havoc in opposing backfields. Carter is tied for third in the SEC with three sacks, and his 5.0 tackles for loss is tied for 11th best. Carter, a senior, and Fairley, a junior are just part of an experienced Auburn defensive line. End Michael Goggans and interior linemen Mike Blanc and Zach Clayton are all seniors for the Tigers.
Game 5 • ULM at Auburn • Oct. 2, 2010 • 11 a.m. • Jordan-Hare Stadium • Auburn, Ala.
2010 Auburn Football Game Notes BYNES LEADS TACKLERS Senior Josh Bynes led Auburn in tackles with 104, and is leading the squad again this season. He currently has a team-best 29 tackles and has 3.5 tackles for loss, an interception, two pass break-ups and four quarterback hurries. Bynes has started the last 25 consecutive games at linebacker for the Tigers. SUCCESSFUL RETURN FOR DBs Auburn’s secondary has been boosted by the return of three former starters who returned from injuries, including two that missed the entire 2009 season. Senior safety Aairon Savage, who missed both the 2008 (knee) and 2009 (Achilles) seasons in their entirety before being granted a sixth year of eligibility by the NCAA in February, is tied for 24 on the team with 19 tackles, including one for loss. Senior safety Zac Etheridge, who suffered a season-ending neck injury last Halloween against Ole Miss, is tied with Savage with 24 tackles and has a pass break-up. Junior safety Mike McNeil, who missed all of 2009 after breaking his leg in the spring, has added seven tackles and a pass break-up. BATES’ MOVE TO LB A GOOD ONE Sophomore Daren Bates started all 13 games at safety as a true freshman in 2009, but converted to linebacker prior to this season. It proved to be a good move, as Bates led the team with a career-high 10 tackles in the season opener against Arkansas State, and currently ranks fourth on the team with 23 tackles for the season. He also has a tackle for loss and a forced fumble. BYRUM RECORD WATCH Lou Groza Award candidate Wes Byrum is closing in on becoming Auburn’s all-time leading scorer. Byrum, who set a school single-season record for points by a kicker last season with 99, has 29 points this season and needs 44 more to pass John Vaughn (2003-06) for the top spot on Auburn’s career points scored list. Byrum is currently fourth on the list with 269 points, just five behind Bo Jackson (1982-85) for third. Byrum had a field goal attempt blocked in the fourth quarter at Mississippi State, snapping a streak of nine consecutive made field goal attempts dating back to last season. His last previous miss was at Tennessee in 2009. He has made 19 of his last 23 field goal attempts after hitting just 11-of-19 in 2008.
SPECIAL TEAMS IMPROVEMENTS In addition to Wes Byrum, a number of other players are excelling on special teams. Senior Demond Washington ranks fourth in the SEC averaging 25.9 yards per kickoff return, and had 126 kickoff return yards against Arkansas State, which is the 12th best total in school history. Junior Quindarius Carr has averaged 7.4 yards per punt return, which is seventh in the league. Senior Ryan Shoemaker is sixth in the SEC averaging 38.9 yards per kick, and freshmen Craig Sanders and Demetruce McNeal have a team-high five tackles on special teams each. In addition, senior Mike Blanc blocked a PAT against Arkansas State, marking the second straight game Auburn blocked a PAT. It was the fourth blocked extra point by the Tigers in the past two seasons. YOUNG GUNS GET FIRST ACTION Auburn has played 13 true freshmen this season, which is tied with Air Force and Florida State for second behind Florida (15) for the most true freshmen played by any team in the country. The true freshmen who have played included: DL Kenneth Carter, LB Jessel Curry, DB Chris Davis, RB Michael Dyer, WR Antonio Goodwin, WR Shaun Kitchens, DE Corey Lemonier, DB Demetruce McNeal, K Cody Parkey, WR Trovon Reed, DE Craig Sanders, DB Ryan Smith and DL Jeffrey Whitaker. CHIZIK ERA ENTERS SECOND YEAR Head coach Gene Chizik is in his second year at the helm of the Auburn program, after recording the second-most wins by a first-year coach in Auburn history last season. He also became the first Auburn head coach to take his team to a bowl game in his initial season, leading the Tigers to a 38-35 overtime victory over Northwestern in the Outback Bowl. Chizik also became just the third coach in Auburn history to win his first five games as head coach, and became just the third SEC coach since the league expanded in 1992 to start 5-0. STAFF REMAINS INTACT Auburn achieved a rare feat by keeping its entire coaching staff from last season, making Auburn the only school in the SEC to return its head coach and every full-time assistant coach. The last time Auburn returned its entire coaching staff was when the 2006 staff returned intact in 2007.

WHEN SCORING 20+ POINTS Since the 2000 season, Auburn is 82-11 (.882) when scoring 20 or more points in a game. Dating back to the start of the 1993 season, Auburn is 125-18-1 (.872) when scoring 20 or more points in a game. UNDER THE LIGHTS AT JORDAN-HARE Auburn has been tough to beat in night games at Jordan-Hare Stadium, accumulating a record of 22-4 (.846) since the 2000 season in home games starting at 6 p.m. or later, including a 3-0 mark this year. That stretch includes a 5-1 record against nationally-ranked opponents, with wins over No. 1 Florida in 2001, No. 2 Florida in 2006, No. 7 Tennessee in 2003, No. 12 South Carolina this season and No. 14 Georgia in 2000. THE SENIOR CLASS Head coach Gene Chizik has a senior class that includes 24 players at Auburn in 2010, which is the largest in Auburn history and almost double the size of last year’s senior class of 13. The previous largest senior class was 23 in 1988. The 2010 seniors include: OL Mike Berry, DL Mike Blanc, OL Jorrell Bostrom, WR Kodi Burns, LB Josh Bynes, K Wes Byrum, DE Antoine Carter, QB Neil Caudle, LB Wade Christopher, DL Zach Clayton, OL Bart Eddins, S Zac Etheridge, RB Mario Fannin, DE Michael Goggans, OL Byron Isom, DB Woody Parramore, OL Ryan Pugh, DB Aairon Savage, P Ryan Shoemaker, LB Craig Stevens, DB Demond Washington, WR Jay Wisner, WR Terrell Zachery and OL Lee Ziemba. IRON MEN Of Auburn’s 24 seniors, 13 have seen time in at least 30 games during their careers, including seven who have played in 40 or more games. Mario Fannin leads the group with 44 games played, including three in 2006 before redshirting and 41 games over the past four seasons, while Michael Goggans and Lee Ziemba have played in all 42 games since 2007. Mike Blanc and Wes Byrum are next with 41 games played each, followed by Zac Etheridge and Craig Stevens (40), Antoine Carter and Ryan Pugh (37), Kodi Burns (36), Mike Berry (35), Josh Bynes (34) and Zach Clayton (31).
HIGHLY TOUTED RECRUITING CLASS While Auburn’s seniors are a critical part of the team, another strong recruiting class is playing a big role in the Tigers’ success. Auburn’s 2010 recruiting class was ranked No. 4 in the nation by both ESPN.com/Scouts, Inc., and Rivals.com and sixth by Scout.com. Seven members of the recruiting class were part of the ESPNU 150. SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW The players on Auburn’s roster ranged in age from 17 to 23 when the season opened. The oldest Tiger, sixth-year senior Aairon Savage (DOB 12/29/86) was 23 years, eight months and six days old on the date of the season opener. The youngest player is freshman Jonathon Mincy (DOB 9/5/92), who celebrated his 18th birthday the day after the Arkansas State game. STARTS STREAKS Senior Lee Ziemba has the longest staring streak on the squad, having started all 42 games over the past four seasons. If he starts all 12 regular-season games this year, he will break Will Herring’s school records of 49 career starts and 49 consecutive starts. One other senior has a streak that dates back to his freshman season, as Ryan Pugh has made 32 straight starts. Senior Josh Bynes is next with 25 consecutive starts and senior Mike Berry has made 22 straight starts. Sophomore Daren Bates and junior Neiko Thorpe have started all 17 games over the last two seasons. OFFENSE BY THE NUMBERS Auburn’s offense lost quarterback Chris Todd, who accounted for more than 93 percent of Auburn’s passing yards last season, and running back Ben Tate, who rushed for 1,362 yards. Still, the Tigers have more than 91 percent of their receiving yards and 85 percent of their catches, plus more than half of their rushing yards returning this year. Players who accounted for nearly 80 percent of Auburn’s scoring return as well. Category Passing Yards Rushing Yards Receptions Receiving Yards Scoring Touchdowns Total Offense All-Purpose Yards

2010 Auburn Football Game Notes THIRD STRAIGHT NEW OPENING DAY QB Junior college transfer Cameron Newton became Auburn’s third opening-day starter in as many seasons, but he is no stranger to the SEC. Newton played at Florida as a true freshman in 2007, rushing 16 times for 103 yards and three touchdowns, and also played in the 2008 opener before redshirting. He spent the 2009 season at Blinn (Texas) College, helping the team to the 2009 NJCAA national championship by passing for 2,833 yards and 22 scores while also rushing for 655 yards and 16 TDs, making him the No. 1-ranked junior college prospect in the country according to Rivals.com.

RUNNING BACK U. Despite losing Ben Tate, a second-round NFL draft pick of the Houston Texans, Auburn still has a deep stable of talented backs in the fold. Senior Mario Fannin leads the group with 996 career rushing yards. Fannin, who has also spent time as a wide receiver and kick returner, was the team’s second-leading receiver last year with 42 catches for 413 yards and three scores. He currently has 2,829 career all-purpose yards, and is just 301 yards away from cracking Auburn’s all-time top 10 list in that category. Sophomore Onterio McCalebb is also back after gaining 565 yards on the ground as a true freshman. McCalebb became the first Auburn freshman ever to rush for 100+ yards in his first two collegiate games. Also added to the mix is freshman Michael Dyer, who was the No. 1ranked high school running back in the country last year according to ESPN.com/Scouts, Inc.
WIDEOUTS RETURN FROM A TO Z Junior Biletnikoff Award candidate Darvin Adams headlines a talented group of wide receivers that return in 2010. Adams set an Auburn single-season record with 60 receptions in 2009, and his 997 receiving yards and 10 touchdown catches were third best in school history. He was named MVP of the Outback Bowl after setting an Auburn bowl record with 12 grabs for 142 yards. Senior Terrell Zachery was Auburn’s No. 2 receiver last year, finishing with 26 receptions for 477 yards and five touchdowns. Zachery was a big play specialist, averaging 49.2 yards per TD catch while also rushing nine times for 214 yards (23.8 yards per carry) and a score. TIGER GRADS Auburn began the season with 11 graduates on its roster, which is second most among all FBS schools. The Tiger graduates include: OL Mike Berry (Public Administration), DT Mike Blanc (Public Administration), DT Zach Clayton (Finance), S Zac Etheridge (Public Administration), RB Mario Fannin (Public Administration), DE Michael Goggans (Public Administration), OL Byron Isom (Public Administration), S Aairon Savage (Education/Master’s in Exercise Science), P Ryan Shoemaker (Exercise Science), LB Craig Stevens (Business Management) and WR Terrell Zachery (Public Administration).

Following a special teams fumble recovery by Spencer Pybus to start the second half, the Tigers went 30 yards in three plays on a 19-yard rush by Mario Fannin and a pair of rushes by Brad Lester, including a 3-yard run around the right side for a touchdown. Tate’s 115 yards on the ground was his fourth career 100-yard rushing game. A 49-yard left side run late in the second quarter was at the time the longest of his career, surpassing his career long of 44 yards set in 2007 against Vanderbilt. The 49-yard run was also the longest of the game for the Tigers. Auburn finished the game with 321 yards rushing, its most since 2005 against Kentucky when the Tigers posted 338. Quarterback Chris Todd capped off the scoring with a 3-yard touchdown pass to Chris Slaughter midway through the fourth quarter. It marked the first touchdowns at Auburn for each player. Rodgeriqus Smith finished the game with 57 yards receiving on five catches to lead the passing attack. Wes Byrum added a pair of field goals, from 33 and 19 yards out, to give him 19 career field goals. In his debut as defensive coordinator, Paul Rhoads’ defense became the first since 2006 to hold an opponent scoreless. The last time that Auburn blanked an opponent was Nov. 4, 2006, against Arkansas State. The defense held ULM to just 220 yards of offense, and the Warhawks were just 2-of-18 on third-down coversions. The Tigers had 19 players see action in their first collegiate games at Auburn.

Wes Byrum's 39-yard field goal in the first overtime period propelled No. 16 Auburn to a thrilling 27-24 win over Clemson in front of a sold-out Jordan-Hare Stadium on Sept. 18. Auburn trailed 17-3 at halftime but used a 21-point third quarter to take a lead before winning in the first overtime period. Clemson's Chandler Catanzaro had a chance to send the game to a second overtime period but missed a 32-yard field goal into the Auburn student section end of the stadium. Darvin Adams finished the game with 118 yards on five catches with a touchdown, including an eight-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter that tied the game at 17-17. Onterrio McCalebb led Auburn on the ground with 81 yards and a touchdown on 10 rushes and teammate Michael Dyer had 69 yards on 16 rushes. Cam Newton was 7-for-14 for 203 yards and two touchdowns and added 68 yards on the 17 rushes. Auburn, which last overcame a 17-0 deficit in 2002, went up 24-17 lead as Newton and Adams hooked up for four completions that covered 95 yards and directly led to two touchdowns, with Adams catching one and McCalebb running one in. McCalebb's 12-yard touchdown run capped a six-play, 61-yard drive for Auburn to start the comeback, bringing Auburn to within a touchdown, 17-10, midway through the third quarter. The big play on the drive was Newton's 34-yard pass to Adams on a third and one play that brought the ball to the Clemson 18 yard line. Auburn's next series saw Adams score his second touchdown of the season as he tapped the tip of his shoe down in bounds to finish off an eight-play drive that started at the Auburn 28 yard line and took just 3:41 off the clock. The next time Auburn touched the ball it needed just 38 seconds to score as Newton's first pass completion to someone other than Adams gave Auburn its first lead of the day, 24-17. Following a five-yard run by McCalebb, Newton found Zachery down the sideline for a 78 yard touchdown, Auburn's third straight series that ended with a touchdown. Clemson answered the Zachary score with an eight-play march down the field to tie the game at 24-24 with 12:36 left in regulation. The drive covered 77 yards and took just 3:27 off the clock.
