D Line

Our DL and front 7 is probably the best it has been since 2010, maybe since the Joe Lee Dunn era. LSU could not block us, and it was more than Jeffrey Simmons. Simmons might be the best DLineman in the conference. I thought losing Rivers and Thomas being in a boot might hurt us, but Braxton Hoyett, Grant Harris stepped up. Anyone know when Thomas will be back?

I can't believe what I'm seeing regarding our tackling this year compared to last year.

Grantham said his first day on the job he started with defensive fundamentals and tackling was numero uno.

We look so much better coached and play with so much more passion on D than we have in a long long time. The way our edge players set the edge and the bracket tackling was great to see. We really looked Alabamaish on defense
