“These guys are absolutely loaded, it's kind of a mind-blowing collection of talent. It really is like an NFL roster. Height, weight, speed, explosiveness. Receivers that can score at anytime, great running backs. Defense is playing as well as any in the country. The collection of defensive line has to be one of the best ever,” Lane Kiffin said.
“I'm not excited for our O-line coach, I can tell you that, to watch these cut-ups. A&M's done a great job of collecting players and putting them together. It's a great challenge,” Kiffin added.
