Im seeing maybe 5 1st round picks on Alabama’s defense. Just sick.

Yep, and I heard one analyst say there are eight or ten future NFL defensive backs between the two teams' rosters.

I was watching a sports science thing, and all 4 of LSU’s startign DB’s have faster 40’s than the average at last years combine. Kirkpatrick and Mathieu are excellent tacklers with speed. Barron and Reid probably both have the speed/tenacity combo for an NFL starter.

Last year, Peterson was the 1st DB taken. This year, it will probably be Claiborne. And the year after, Mathieu could take it. There could definitely be three straight years of LSU having the 1st CB taken. Crazy. And add in the Alabama LB’s, and both teams’ D-Lines.
