Senior tailback Kevin Faulk missed two games and was slowed in several others last season by a hamstring injury yet still gained 1,144 yards. Herschel Walker's SEC career rushing record is 1,981 yards away and not out of reach. The Tigers are 15-2 when Faulk rushes for 100 yards.... New Orleans native and four-year starter Herb Tyler brings senior experience at quarterback. He passed for 1,581 yards and 10 touchdowns last season but is also a threat running the option. He rushed for 50 yards and two touchdowns in last year's upset of Florida .... SEC All-Freshman right tackle Trey Langley is one of three returning starters on the offensive line.... Anthony (Booger) McFarland, a 6'1", 290-pound senior noseguard, is the leader of a defense that should benefit from new coordinator Lou Tepper's streamlined scheme.... Senior linebacker Joe Wesley is the fourth Tiger in a decade to make more than 100 tackles in a season.
