Report card: No. 16 Auburn 27, No. 11 Oregon 21

Grading Auburn's 27-21 win over Oregon:

Rushing offense — A: Auburn scuffled a bit early but got the run game going behind JaTarvious Whitlow, who finished with 110 rushing yards on 24 carries. Auburn finished with 206 rushing yards, including 1 by backup quarterback Joey Gatewood on a leap across the line for a touchdown.

Rushing defense — B: The Tigers gave up a pair of rushing touchdowns but still limited Oregon to 90 on the ground. The Ducks aren't a particularly big running team, but it's still worth something to halt their running backs.
