I saw a quote somewhere over the weekend that I thought really summed it up nicely.
There are many different ways to win a Natty offensively, but you cannot win one defensively without a dominant defensive line.
Outside of QB, I've always said the next position where you MUST be dominant in order to be a truly elite football team is both DT spots.
I think it's a big reason many of us are so excited about the defense next year. Norton and McIntosh are legit NFL kids. It all starts there. Vincent should be as high up on the priority list as any kid we're recruiting.
100% agree
No coincidence Bama's titles have all had a common denominator: ELITE line play on both sides. It made their RBs that much better, and it made their game managers taking snaps enough to get the job done. CFB is won with ELITE line play. If you don't have it then you'll need ELITE talent at the rest of the other spots.
