GwillMac6 20,671 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I really have enjoyed this in my case MUCH NEEDED football talk recently in the dog days of summer to help bridge the gap to august with the whole discussion of who is Auburns best RB ever besides BO and so on and so forth. My vote would go to Tracy Rocker. Our most decorated defensive player in our history I do believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dshep4au 266 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Freddie Smith- he was our entire defense in the Barfield years. Seriously though, I would say Ronnie Brown or Cadillac Williams. Either would have probably won the Heisman if they were the only back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corchjay 5,311 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Not an individual but I'll put that 2010 offensive line as a group up against any group we've every had collectively. They took their lumps a little in their freshman and sophomore years but junior and senior years they were as dominating as I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,822 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 The original one man show - Dameyune Craig. He would've won the Heisman in this offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU Is Gold 410 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 My vote would go to either Karlos Dansby or Takeo Spikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Barfield acknowledged he could have been the best RB in the nation but said we needed him at LB. Plus we had Andrews, Brooks, and Cribbs at RB already...lol. I remember him intercepting a pass at about the opposing 25 and he made one of the better cutting, shifting runs I have ever seen to score a TD.

If he were playing today he would definitely be a Heisman and maybe even a Thorpe award finalist. Don't know if that would even be feasible but if so, TF is the type of player who could do it.

Plainstalk 32 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Not the glamorous pick but the offensive tackle Marcus McNeil. In all the years he started he gave up 1 or 2 sacks from his left tackle position. Also liked Cadillac Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast Freddie is not always brought up in these discussions but should be. That man was an unbelievable tackling machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordoAU 87 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 My vote goes to 2010 Nick Fairley. He played just as big of a role in the NC as Cam. I have only seen two DTs take over games in my life and those were Suh of Nebraska and Fairley. He was an unrelanting force. Karlos Dansby, Cadillac, Ronnie Brown, Rocker, Freddie Smith, Spikes, Beasley, Nick Marshall, Kevin Greene and Mason would all be next in that order.

Tiger 8,822 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 I also want to take a moment to mention maybe the most underrated AU player of all time, by AU fans, in Nick Marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 No doubt about it. My vote has to go to Terry Beasley. I grew up watching or listening to Pat and Terry from 1969 to 1971. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
