Allen would beat Vandy by himself. Barnett doesn't belong in the same sentence with Allen.

And, that's why Zachary Daniel Cunningham is the best defensive player in the conference and arguably all of CFB. He us certainly the best in the state of Tn.


True.

Which is about like saying Reuben Foster is a better defensive player than Jonathan Allen. Or vice versa.

Barnett is a great, great player who any team would be lucky to have. That being said when you really watch him closely the last few weeks he took himself out of a lot of plays and didn't play the run well at all. That's not to take anything away from him with those DTs & LBs you're going to have some holes anyway but Barnett rushed himself out of a lot of plays the other night.

He's vastly overrated

I don't think he's overrated. I think he's a damn good player and going to be a very solid pro for a long time in the NFL but I do think he got frustrated. Which being an elite DE with the rest of that defense behind him would be very frustrating.
