Does anyone disagree that this guy is the most overrated player in the entire conference?

29 total tackles in 11 games.

Meanwhile, Jarran Reed - Bama's best defensive lineman on a group that represents one of the best front 7s in college football history gets left completely off the All-SEC list.

He's a GREAT RB in a high school offense.

Add Joey Bosa to the list of overrated people. He's more overrated than Nkemdiche.

I agree. That said, bama fans have NO right to complain about the All-SEC teams list. 0.

It's pretty sad what Ole miss did to both of those kids.

Don't tell people you burned your dick in the shower...that's what my ole pappy never said.

Nah, Bosa's pretty good. He had 20+ TFLs and 13 sacks last year. Started this year slow but has since played really well.

His stats are very mediocre

It's amazing how potential can carry you

Same thing happened with dj humphries going in the first round last year

The combine helps a lot I think they see a freak athlete and jizz their shorts even if the film/stats are average

29 tackles in 11 games? frick I had 29 tackles in the first half of a game I played. 11 for loss. Granted it was a shite team like Memphis or something.

That actually goes right along with exactly what I'm saying. His high school recruiting rankings are the only thing that make people want to add him to an All-American or even All-SEC list. People hate being wrong.

They were wrong as shite about Nkemdiche.

Myles Garrett isn't terrible but he isn't dominant either

Yeah, against that stellar schedule that OSU plays.

ETA: 7 guys on their defense had a more productive day than he did against Bama. In their biggest games he averaged about 2 total tackles per game. Dude gets blocked. A lot.

While I certainly think Nkemdiche could have been more dominant, he still takes up all of the attention of the opposing offensive line coach and coordinator. Yeah Reed had more tackles, but please tell me you don't think he is actually a better player? Alabama does have one of the best front 7s in college that I can remember, but that is because the entire group is good. Besides Nkemdiche and Haynes, are front 6/7 is not very good. Can't penalize Nkemdiche because he gets double teamed because he's not next to Robinson and Allen, with Ragland behind him.
