Would like to see this "consensus." A&M had a great Oline that year for sure. But Bama's was the best in 2012.


I'm not sure what metric there is to use but if we are going NFL, it's very likely 3 of the 5 will be top 10 picks, 1 will most likely be a first rounder and the last got picked up as a FA.

Can Bama's line from '12 come even close to that?

Are you going to use offensive production? Johnny Manziel was the leading rusher in the SEC on the most productive team in SEC history playing one fewer game than Bama. More points, yards, etc.

All good points. I'm pretty sure Bama's 2012 Oline did well in the draft, but I like to stick to college production when comparing college players.

Bama
Rush Yds/Game: 227.5
Sacks allowed: 23 in 13 games

A&M
Rush Yds/Game: 242.1
Sacks allowed: 23 in 13 games

I imagine that Manziel's ability to scramble outside the tackle box contributed to some of those rush stats, but you could make an argument for both being the best.
