Title: Volsboy, about our performance against UTC Post by: BanditVol on September 05, 2015, 03:47:14 EDT http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/sports/college/story/2014/dec/31/2-utc-football-players-invited-nfl-scouting-combine/280499/
Two of the players from their DL are currently on NFL rosters. One was drafted (Tull in the 4th round by the Saints) and the other (Lott) was picked up by the Titans in May and is in the mix to make the 53 man roster. So UTC, although they are a mid-major, had two legit NFL players on the DL. That makes them one of the better DLs we faced last year. To me, that explains why our very green OL had a hard time holding them. And I know..."but it was UTC!!!". So what? Some really good NFL players come out of mid-majors or even DII sometimes. The reason I bring this up now...relax, BG has ZERO players on their DL with NFL potential. My over/under on rush yards is 280. Part of me is thinking that's way too low....but "O Line".

So they had more in the draft than the Vols? Which is sad within itself. I can't believe their DL was better than many SEC DL's though.Two of the players from their DL are currently on NFL rosters.

Probably not bammer mizzou and florida but I didn't go through every single team to compare I just expect only a handful of sec teams have two nfl dl at the same time Title: Re: Volsboy, about our performance against UTC Post by: BanditVol on September 06, 2015, 01:23:13 EDT Of course...it's our defense that's sucking today lol
