The protectors
AUBURN - You won't find any statistics for them or read their names in the newspaper, usually. They are literally the biggest piece of the Auburn football team puzzle and they rarely come in contact with the ball.
Eric Miller, Pat Patterson, Colin Parry, Ryan Hutchings and Nick Lepak make up the Maroons unshakable offensive line and are a big reason why standout running back Quendel Ellison is having the best season of his career (220 carries, 1,785 yards, 21 touchdowns). Not that any of them would take credit for it.
“We don't usually get a lot of the glory, but it's nice to know that Quendel appreciates us when we help him get all those yards,” Parry said. “The first thing he does in the locker room is congratulate us and tell us that he couldn't do it without us, but he's such a great running back, so I'm sure he probably could.”
