And how does it compare to 2012, 2013, and 2014?

What are their strengths, weaknesses?

Height, weight, years in the program, etc?

This is our best DLine since 2006.

Johnathan Bullard is having an All-SEC year and Alex McCalister has been a bit of a hybrid rush end/LB

We have only had 2 healthy LBs for most of the year in Antonio Morrison and Jarrad Davis. We'll be getting Jeremi Powell back for LSU, but Morrison and Davis have performed at a really high level

To much work for me to figure out. I know LSU has an excellent O-line. They are some big fellows. Don't you have a TE that is like 6-5 and 300 lbs?

That's crazy. Fl's D has there work cut out for them. I heard that LSU has had all types of schemes thrown at them trying to slow LF down. Nothings worked yet. I Do look forward to seeing how Fl tries to slow them down.

You should know better than an old Tiger fan. I watched your guys a couple of times but don't see the type of rush D you had there in '06-'09. They are outstanding overall but I don't think they've faced this kind of OLine and rushing attack as of yet. Should be a great game.

The only thing that has worked is gang tackling and sound gap control. State's DT Chris Jones dominated our RG early in that game and was hitting Fournette in the backfield until they replaced Boutte with Clapp. It's certainly possible to disrupt the running game but Florida hasn't been able to since 2012 and that was when our offensive linemen were dropping like flies.

Leonard has already said that Florida is the toughest defense he's faced so far in his career so I'm sure the offensive will be ready for a battle. This will probably be the second most physical game in the country this year.

Bullard has dominated in that regard, I think he's leading the SEC in TFL
