I know you guys have the skilled athletes to win big and more importantly you have what might be the best quarterback in America. Tell me about the OL and DL. Those two groups will decide whether Atlanta is your future. Were they highly recruited? Experienced? Also, how do you feel about the schedule? Thanks, you guys can save me a lot of time and research. Good luck..

OL will come down to LT. Here is how I see the line.

RT Givens/Liggins
Givens is RSFR but heard great things and Liggins is said to be developing great not sure who gets it. Worst case Rawlings locks it down
RG Taylor/Sims
Both solid. Taylor would have started last year except the shoulder injury. Sims is developing to a great player.
C Conyers/Rawlings
Conyers is the returning start before the injury. Rawlings played great last year. One will be the #1 the other will back up and swing to T.
LG Patterson/Boulden
Patterson started about half the games. Patterson will be solid and Boulden is said to finally getting to be a solid back up.
LT Little/Taylor backupRawlings/Givens
So Little is the guy but some say Taylor might move to work LT and be the guy day one if Little needs some games to take that on then Taylor would move back to G.

DL will be awesome.

DE Brown/Youngblood/McDowell
Brown was starter till he missed the bowl game with injury. Will be back and be a rock for us. Youngblood just won the Chucky Mullens award. Not a star but solid SEC player
DT Speaks/Donelly/Robinson
Speaks will be the break out DLmen in the SEC. Donelly is a true soph that got good reps and will be good. Robinson is a RSFR that will play solid
NT Jones/Gross/B Jones
DJ Jones started some played a lot and will be in the draft. Isaac Gross back is huge. Would have started last year but had a neck injury and he finally gained weight. Benito Jones would be a starter on almost any Ole Miss team except this year and last.
DE Haynes/Evens/Wiley
Haynes will fight for the sack lead in the SEC. Evens got reps and will improve and Wiley is a athletic freak that will learn the D and be great Wiley could be solid depth this year if needed.

I look to have atleast one more true freshmen get reps on the Oline. Not be great but get reps.

Also on the DL it looks like it is down to us to who gets the guy from Holmes CC that can play in 16.

For the first time in the Freeze era, we should have a good running game to go along with Swag and the passing game.
The offense will be very hard to stop.
On Defense, if we can get a couple of question marks answered, this will be the best Ole Miss team since the Vaught era

You'll be 9-3 but one of them could very well be over Alabama.

They look decently good. Possibly even good enough to get back to their ceiling of 9-3 and 2nd in the West.

9-3 sounds about right. Best QB and most explosive offense in the SEC, but too many questions at OL, LB and DB.

Ole Miss sweeps FSU, Alabama, Georgia and LSU but loses to Arkansas, Memphis and Georgia Southern.
