Well most would say Miami had a top 3 DL in ACC last season, and the 2 teams also up there lost like their entire DL for the most part.
The Miami DL in bowl game wasn't a fair assessment of the Miami DL for 2024.
We started
Bain
Deen
JHH
Wayne
We had ZERO backups at DE. We rotated Moten, Gore, Lichtenstein. I think Bain played every snap. We sat WAyne went to a 3 man front to give Wayne a little breather.
Am I missing anyone? We played 7 DL in bowl game.
The DL if healthy will be an upgrade over bowl game DL. One big issue was WAyne losing the edge in run defense.
