But this is really my first or second time watching this game. Why does Auburn have really good D Lines and not much else?

To answer honestly, we have had very poor recruiting and development in with linebackers ever since Tubbs left, and coincidentally Saban showed up. So are biggest rival started to grab all of the elite talent at that position. This year, with Williams, we should be a little better.

I can't explain DB's. We've had talent, but the development has been terrible, so I guess I can explain it. Last year, they were actually scared to tackle LF at LSU. We have a kid who just got arrested for pot, in Davis, who could be very good. Last year, coverage was good, but QB's had 7-10 seconds to allow receivers to get open.

I am hoping the improved pass rush will allow for better secondary play. The DL should be much improved, and at least 2 deep.
