Auburn quarterback Byrum Brown just joined legendary company alongside Vince Young, Kyler Murray and Nick Marshall following the Tigers' stunning upset of No. 1 Georgia! But has Alex Golesh finally discovered the offensive identity Auburn needs to compete with anybody in college football? On today's Auburn HIT, we break down two incredible statistics from Auburn's historic victory in Athens and explain why Brown's rushing ability could be the key to beating LSU. According to Auburn's athletic department, Brown became the first quarterback since Vince Young in the 2005 national championship game to rush for at least 100 yards in a victory over the AP No. 1 team. He also became Auburn's first quarterback since Nick Marshall in 2013 to rush for 100 yards in consecutive games. And there's another impressive comparison. Brown became the first quarterback since Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray in 2018 to record at least 150 passing yards and 100 rushing yards against the nation's top-ranked team. But these accomplishments tell only part of the story. Brown's physical running style creates opportunities throughout Auburn's offense. His ability to extend drives forces defenses to respect the quarterback run, opening opportunities for Jeremiah Cobb, Omar Mabson, Chas Nimrod and Keshaun Singleton. Against Georgia, Auburn finally leaned into those strengths earlier in the game. Now the challenge is building on that success. With Lane Kiffin and LSU coming to Jordan-Hare Stadium, Auburn needs Brown involved in the rushing attack from the opening possession rather than waiting until the offense starts struggling. Can Brown deliver another historic performance against LSU? And has Auburn finally found the offensive formula that could change its entire season? #AuburnFootball #ByrumBrown #WarEagle Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
