You missed the part where the LB play was terrible.

That's high praise around these parts. The secondary will be one of the best in the SEC but probably only the best we've had since 2019. 2016 and 2017 were really good as well

True or not, the bright side is most of the time they'll only be playing 2 linebackers. Those two are highly likely to be Strong and the Clemson transfer Jones. By all accounts both will be very good. Depth is a concern still.

The fact that 5 and even 6 DBs will be on the field most of the time makes the latest recruiting haul even more important. Sage Ryan may end up as the defacto "3rd linebacker" because he'll be out there so much in the slot and around the line of scrimmage.

2003 and 2011 are the gold standard, that’s pretty high standards

I think the O Line got better as the game went on. The D-Line overwhelmed them at times, but they made some clean pockets and gave their QBs time for the most part.

Since the run game was all but absent from the spring game I can’t wait to see how Peetz utilizes them like he did with mccaffrey

the guy Goodwin we got in this last class, I can't wait to see him. He's that modern day RB that every NFL team is looking to have as part of their combo.
