I've heard Auburn can rotate 10 deep, etc.


That can be said for quite a few teams.

Arkansas, Auburn, Alabama, LSU all have a big rotation of DL. I can't really speak to aTm or Ole Miss...but I think Ole Miss lost a bit from last season.

We rotate 10 guys on our DL for the first time since joining the SEC. 5 DT's and 5 DE's are rotated.

Here was our snapcount from the UCLA game with positions in parenthesis. We rotate a lot at DT


DL
Garrett-73 (DE)
Hall-72 (DE)
Keke-45 (DT)
Walker-41 (DT)
Henderson-26 (DT)
Chevis-26 (DT)
Mack-25 (DT)
Cunningham-17 (DE)
Lockhart-9 (DE)
Johnson-7 (DE)

Besides Garrett, Daeshon Hall is probably a 2nd-3rd round talent after this season as a JR. There's a decent drop off in depth at DE though. We don't have an elite talent at DT but all are solid players and we don't drop off much when we rotate out

In years passed this has been the case, but not this year. LSU is pretty thin on the DL this year due to some injuries over the summer.

Interestingly enough, Bama isn't extremely deep on the DL. The top 3 or 4 guys are studs, but behind that it's fairly inexperienced. They do have some talented edge guys who aren't technically DL, but almost exclusively rush the passer

Ole Miss goes about 7 deep across their front four. Speaks and Haynes are really good, Benito Jones looks like he will be as well
