You obviously haven't heard about their badass freshman DT's. Best DT class in the country so I hear, recruiting rankings be damned.

Not really...will start 2 rs SO, a JR, and SR...backed up by 3 SR, 1 rs SO, 1 tr SO, and then the 2 true fr studs figure to play (unknown) backup roles.
Still think it's overly optimistic to say we end up top 10 in the country here... but it will be our most talented full unit thusfar.
Cox was elite, no doubt, and will be sorely missed, but this is the first time we've had real depth on the DL since 99. Last year we were talented up front, and that kept us in games against Bama/LSU, but our lack of depth caught up with us in the 4th in both games. We should be a whole line change deeper this year...
Boyd actually graded out only 1 rd worse than Cox last season(3rd rd grade vs 2nd for Fletcher, but Fletcher was always more freakish in measurables) before returning to school. Our acchiles heel on the line last year was a lack of outside pass rush, which let Arky and Aub gash us. We still lack good depth in this role, but Autry is elite.
