"We've got some active, athletic guys who can help us," Smart said. "We don't match up super well against our (offensive line) guys every day in practice. We're getting smashed some, but they're going to do that to a lot of people. I mean, they're grown men, but that's just going to make us better."

And this about Trey Hill;

In time, the best player of all of them might be (true sophomore) Trey Hill at center. He's the most athletic 350-pound man that I've ever seen.
"You look out there at the physicality and you're like, 'This is what you want, iron sharpening iron, really good players against really good players,' and our practices are harder than 90% of the games," Smart said. "Only 10% of the games will be tougher than practice.

The positive I get from this is the quote "iron sharpening iron". The Defense will be ready.
