Both teams were near the top of the NCAA in returning experience this season, with large numbers of senior starters and in the 2-deep and lots or starts on the oline. Who do you lose and who replaces them? Teams near the bottom of returning experience going into this season include tennessee, missouri, lsu, and alabama.

Mississippi State returns pretty much everyone, from what I understand.

We lose a frickton honestly. 27 seniors on the roster I believe. Not all scholly players, but a lot.

Depends on how many juniors turn pro. I think we can overcome most of the seniors we lose. Marshall and CAP will be gone, but Jeremy Johnson is a much better passer and next year will be the most highly regarded group of running backs Auburn has had in a while assuming Jovon Robinson and Kerryon Johnson both sign.

Alabama is losing the following regular contributors:
Offense: OG Kounadjio, OT sheppard, OG Brown, TE Vogler, QB Sims, WR Cooper, WR White, WR Jones, RB Yeldon (probably)
Defense: NT Ivory, S Perry, S Williams, S Collins, LB Depriest,OLB Xavier Dickson, maybe DT Reed if he decides to chance it, slight chance Ragland goes, which would be a disaster for us
We are going to be a little thin at safety, going to be insane on the DL, LB should be good again if ragland stays, corners will be excellent. QB is a question mark again, OL is being rebuilt but mostly with superior talent so im optimistic and coker has looked pretty good in limited action so far. WR is taking an experience hit but we have tons of good young WRs and are getting the #1 WR in the 2015 class in Ridley. TE is meh, vogler never really turned into a dominant blocker or even a decent pass threat. RB will be fine as always

Auburn will be "different"...
On offense, Jeremy Johnson takes over and the offense changes to a degree. Duke Williams is rumored to be leaning towards returning, while running back will be divided between Racean Thomas and Jovon Robinson. The offensive line is my favorite part: any of Braden Smith, Avery Young, Austin Golson, Shon Coleman, Alex Kozan or Xzavier Dampeer could start. There will be a ton of competition there. My guess would be a combo of all the aforementioned minus Xzavier Dampeer.
On defense, we lose a lot up front, but add talent in the back end and everyone should return at linebacker. Carl Lawson returns, Tray Matthews is added into the mix and Auburn is also in the mix for a ton of Junior College linemen that would play right away (in rotation). I'm not getting my hopes up for an outstanding defense, but having Monty Adams, Carl Lawson, Elijah Daniels, Kris Frost, Cass McKinzy, Tray Matthews, Rudy Ford, Derrick Moncrief, Nick Ruffin and others on the field has me excited. We also lose that lockerroom cancer known as Jermaine Whitehead.
