Shall I post all of Alabama's TD's and sunseri's pick six against y'all? The whole point is, you don't have coaching for your defense to consistently beat top teams. Getting talent is obviously gonna help a little but they aren't shite without the brains and technique. An OLB DT and Corner can't do it alone. The pass rush and push up front is great, the neutralizing of the number 1 or 2 receiver is great. What about teams who have a great TE (Alabama and georgia), teams that can run the ball (AU l, LSU, Alabama) who's gonna stop them? Your ILBs and Safeties. They are the heart and soul of your defense. DWI. If you get those then I'll be the first one over here to acknowledge that. Alabama has 3 of your DT, 2 of your OLB, 3 of your Sheffield, and 4-5 badass safeties, along with the most important position on defense. ILB. Foster, Ragland, Lewis all number 1 ILBs and that's after Depriest leaves. Sure Alabama won't have the passing game you have and that's expected with the offense but you won't be blowing Alabama out of the water offense vs offense like Alabama will blow your defense out defense vs defense.

Alabama had all of that and some 2 years ago when A&M beat them in Tuscaloosa.

Why? There isn't a CFB fan alive who doesn't know our D has been pitiful.

Again, this season will likely be a small step backwards for us (Sherm left us stocked on offense, but very little on DL). 2015 was always the "go-to" date we had circled. It's prob going to be another year til the recruits pan-out; but Sumlin has been bringing in the players. No point in arguing that.

Some of y'all come across as threatened--as if A&M doing better means your teams will suck. I have yet to read the logic behind that. Chillax.

Surely you should know how this works recruitingjunkie. We don't have the top guys now, but 4,5,6,7 years into Sumlin building a program with classes like this and your Bama squad and those ULSU tigers will no longer have a talent advantage to beat up on others. We are recruiting at ALL levels and positions on defense at a high level. We aren't located in a shithole like Alabama, so we don't need to poach other states to be elite on defense

Recruiting junkie...do a little research into A&M's D history... Before you look stupid...'14 was the anomaly. We've had some avg to ruff yrs recently but we we're know formD in the 70's -90's.
Snyder did a masterful job in '12 with a solid group of Sr's and one jr stud and No depth.
We all knew last yrs D would struggle, but expect improvement going forward. ..and the recruiting is matching that.
LOTS of 4 *'s and a few 5 stars on D.
