I think I'd rather keep Cam outside and slide Rose inside permanently. He has more of a DT's body, IMO.

It really doesn't matter to me who plays where, as long as we can somehow get Wilson, Rose, & Heyward out there all at the same time. That would be the base of one killer line.

Gibson should be ready to make an impact in here somewhere...
wilson coming back is going to squeeze heyward which may prompt the move inside.. the question then becomes is it better to have cam play inside and let wilson take back over outside or keep him outside so rose/larimore/worthington/abdallah can rotate inside... its a good problem to have.

After dwelling on 2002, 2006 and 2007. I've come to believe how the season finishes will come down to just how good the defense is over all.
It's really that simple.

I agree but to add to this the biggest thing is whether we can develop a dominant front four. Biggest difference between a good defense and a championship defense is a dominant four man line.

I look at who we got and compare that to 2002, 2006 Florida and 2007 LSU
and I don't think we have the quality inside as those defenses.

Even if that's true, we aren't facing 2002 tOSU, 2006 UF, or 2007 LSU. It's impossible to tell anyway. I'd be shocked if they didn't get a whole lot better though. We haven't returned this much on the d-line since '03 plus we're bringing in 5 freshmen. I expect great things from Heyward, Wilson(though it may take him a little while to get going), and Larimore and improvement from Worthington, Denlinger, and Rose.
