The barners are seldom worth the praise much less trying to have the stomach for it. BUT.
Kevin Steele, with talent in place, does the best job in the SEC defending HUNH RPO spread teams. We have SEC DCs who can get in front of conventional offenses but lose their mind and defensive principles at the speed of light against hybrid offenses. I can only assume that when the dust settled from almost being the head man Kevin didn't want to play second fiddle any longer. Otherwise, Mason struggles like the rest of the SEC against elite offenses.

Steele’s press man has cost AU more games than Gus inept Offense. Last year he got credit because he kept LSU to season lows and played UF close. Truth is LSU had over 500 yards of Offense and Trask was starting his first game. AU had two NFL players on the DL and some other future NFL talent. The last 3 years against Bama , he has given up over 1000 yards through the air.Steele was turning into his old Clemson self.
