MSURacerDT55 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 This will be a really good year for high level defensive line play, what group is the best from top to bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWil23 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I think that it's clearly Clemson with three potential 1st rounders coming back in 2018. OSU could have 2 Top 5 picks at DE in Bosa and Young with a good interior DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, if you take depth into consideration, OSU makes it VERY close...but those interior DL for Clemson who also have studs on the edge put them ahead IMO. Even with Landers as the other DT (He was a nightmare to coach again in HS) I'd give Clemson the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antwaun Jackson, Taron Vincent, Haskil Garrett, Tommy Togai, Malik Barrow, Devon Hamilton, Tyler Friday and Jerron Cage, pretty much all studs, I may be wrong but I'm not sure Clemson has that many quality DTs on their roster. Also I think Wyoming has a really nice sleeper group with Granderson and Youhanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the way Larry Johnson utilizes his depth/rotation. It doesn't make for sexy numbers, but fresh legs and personnel packages makes for a nightmare for other teams and coaching staffs.

PAW Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 We have depth as well. Albert Huggins would start basically anywhere else. Pinckney is also very good. Have a lot of very good young pass rushers. We lost 4/5* Josh Belk after one semester because he wasn’t going to see the field this year due to depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 I can't recall a more impressive starting DL than Clemson's current one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateDawg Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Have to go Clemson. Unreal that those top 3 guys all hung around another year. OSU is right there. Both teams have three future 1sts starting on their lines. Bosa is the best of the bunch. As far as experience and production as a unit though, Clemson probably has 2,3, and 4 in this debate though. Unreal year for dline prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSURacerDT55 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 Yeah, we're gonna have to revisit this one. I'll put Bosa, Chase Young, Dre'Mont Jones and Robert Landers up against ANYBODY in the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll put Bosa, Chase Young, Dre'Mont Jones and Robert Landry up against ANYBODY in the country OSU is as good as Clemson with their DEs but I think Clemson’s tougher at DT and has more depth in their regular DL rotation. Bosa is fairly easily the best pass rusher of anyone, and you could argue Young is 2nd between the two schools. As a whole though, I still think it’s hard to go against that Clemson experience. OSU hasn’t really faced a test yet and should next week. Obviously, A&M isn’t a premiere team, so Clemson was shaky tonight, but we’ve seen that with them in the early season before. Definitely your two best in the country on the DL though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
