I really don't think our defense will skip a beat in 2020


When it comes to positional importance on defense, it's like 50% DL, 20% LB's and 30% DB's.

Our DL seems like it will be a huge step back and that's what worries me.

We had quite a few years at Auburn where I was pretty sure the DBs were 70% responsible for success on defense

I think good defensive coordinators like Steele are able to adjust the defense to its strengths. I’m sure we’ll notice differences but I think this group of LBs are a good match for this DL

Forgive the homerism and I couldn't agree with you more on percentages of importances, but I think what we have returning is going to be pretty damned good on the DL. There's not a generational Brown-type talent who's developed, but we're going to start some athletic, country-strong kids that will eat up OL's and we have some depth. I see another 15-19 ppg average for this group.

I'm more concerned about the offense and OL. I think we'll be more physical on the OL and they will evolve into a better group compared to last year. My concern is that it will take a few games, and UK is a really good football team to play out of the gate. The usual +4 with playing at home doesn't really matter this year, and they are a really experienced team.
