quote:

An NFL scout who visited Alabama and Auburn in recent weeks has a warning for the Crimson Tide. “They better watch out,” the scout said, “because Auburn is coming.”

While the Tigers are more known for their up-tempo offense under second-year coach Gus Malzahn, the scout said they appear to have more NFL draft prospects on defense than Alabama. He cited Auburn senior defensive tackle Angelo Blackson as one of his early breakout players nationally.

“It really shocks me,” the scout said. “Alabama’s not there yet defensively. If you want to play bully ball and smack heads with them, you’re probably going to be in trouble. But when those guys get in space, it seems like they’re heavy-legged. You’ve seen it against Auburn and Oklahoma. When they play a fast team that’s good in space, they struggle.”


Great baby jeebus on the cross, I just noticed the authors of this piece.
