Every other position we may be better but their dl is so much bigger than ours.

Our DEs better step the frick up this season.

WTF does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

If their DL is so much bigger than ours, then it is a damned good thing we don't play our DL against their DL - I think our OL is one of the biggest we've ever had.

And, our DL is pretty athletic - I'd be worried if they were both small and unathletic.

I'm more worried about depth than any perceived deficiencies of our starters on the DL.

How could you possibly be worried?

Auburn hasn't been able to run all game on Jacksonville state.

I don't think any of you understand his point.

He is saying AU's DL looks bigger than ours. Their DL is getting abused by JSU's OL.

Are you kidding. JV St. is giving them a dose of their own medicine. Their going to be tired all week from chasing that big a** QB that JV got.

I don't think size is their problem - Gus doesn't pay much attention to defense. Ellis Johnson is a turnaround guy (and he did a good job when he came to Auburn), and Garner is a good recruiter, but there is more to it in our league.

We had a great Xs and Os guy the past few years, but a mediocre recruiter (at best). His DL coach was good, but not great, and it showed over time.

Yeah, I want a great recruiter AND great coach at every position, but the big guys need to be developed more than the skill positions - IMHO - as too many of them make it mainly on size and athleticism in high school. When that evens out, they need better technique. Garner has put a lot of guys in the NFL, so maybe there are other issues on the plains.

I hope this thread isn't serious. J'Ville is running all over Auburn! #6 in the country looks garbage to me
