  Auburn starting tailback JaTarvious Whitlow sustained a knee injury in the Tigers' loss to Florida. Tigers coach Gus Malzahn says Whitlow had a procedure on Tuesday and is expected to miss four to six weeks. Whitlow has rushed for 544 yards and seven touchdowns for the 12th-ranked Tigers, the second-highest total in the Southeastern Conference. Auburn has an open date this week after the 24-13 loss to No. 7 Florida. Whitlow could return in time to play against No. 3 Georgia on Nov. 16. His absence will likely lead to increased roles for Kam Martin and Shaun Shivers. Martin has run for 174 yards and Shivers has gained 144. - AP College Football

  The Auburn Tigers came out determined to run and run some more. It was a pretty effective strategy. JaTarvious Whitlow rushed for 135 yards and two touchdowns and Bo Nix ran and passed for scores to lead the eighth-ranked Tigers to a 55-16 victory over Kent State Saturday night. "We found our identity early in running the ball," Nix said. "We really moved them up front and we got in a rhythm running the ball. That really opened up certain outside throws, some short ones and got me in a little bit of a rhythm." The Tigers (3-0) piled up 467 rushing yards - and three 100-yard rushers - in their final tune up before Southeastern Conference play. They also got some big plays running and passing from Nix, including a 49-yard flea flicker to a wide-open Eli Stove for a touchdown in the third quarter. Then both offensive stars were able to head to the sideline after the Tigers avoided a pre-SEC letdown against the Golden Flashes (1-2).

Most of the damage was done with a running game that had struggled at times. Nix had runs of 17 and 18 yards on consecutive plays to set up a touchdown on the opening drive and added a 1-yard score. He completed 12 of 16 passes for 161 yards for an offense that topped its combined points from the first two games. "I really think the quarterback keeping it a few times early really opens things up the middle," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. Backup quarterback Joey Gatewood ran for 102 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Shaun Shivers, Auburn's 5-foot-7, 179-pound running back, also gained 102 yards. It was the first time Auburn had three 100-yard rushers in a game since 1983 with a Bo Jackson-led group against Maryland. - Auburn/AP College Football

  2019 PRESEASON ALL-SOUTHLAND CONFERENCE SECOND TEAM (COACHES): RB Myles Wanza, Lamar, Jr., Houston, Texas,...Wanza returns from a sophomore season that saw him become one of the league's top weapons. A member of one the nation's top 1-2 punches in the backfield (A.J. Walker), Wanza carried the ball 110 times for a team-high 683 yards (6.2 ypc) and three touchdowns. He produced those numbers despite missing three games due to injury. Wanza averaged nearly 76 rushing yards per game last season. Wanza saved his best performance for one of the toughest opponents of the season. Just a week after the team's thrilling victory over Incarnate Word, Wanza helped lead the Cardinals to an upset victory over nationally ranked Sam Houston State with 15 carries for 168 yards and two touchdowns. - Lamar Football
