What in the frick.

This the deepest and biggest our DL has been since 2011 and we have Devin White (260 lbs) and Donnie Alexander (235 lbs).

Major DL contributors:
Lacouture - 300 lbs.
Gilmore - 310 lbs.
Alexander - 340 lbs.
Herron - 312 lbs.
Ferrel - 290 lbs.
Lawrence - 300 lbs.

shite, even Arden Key is up to like 260.
How many of these guys are NTs in a 3-4 defense?

And by up the middle I didn't mean into the 2nd layer (LBs). Our LBs are badass. I'm talking about holding down the interior and eating up blocks. That will be a tall order again bammer. I do have confidence that Aranda can put the rest of the puzzle pieces (which are studly) in place to minimize Bama's success, but we'll see.

Only Alexander was recruited to be a NT. Gilmore learned the position last season and is now excelling. I would think that there's at least 4 guys that could slide into NT without much drop off.
