The sheer amount of talent on this defense has been absolutely SPECIAL to watch. The young guys really stepped up. So many freaking TIGERS on this roster.
I think most of us were worried mid-way through the season. I’ve seen a lot of Tiger teams in the past have guys start looking towards the draft (see some of those guys in the ‘15 championship run) and sort of give up on the team.
Not so with this bunch. So much young talent really challenged the older guys in the locker room and the proof has been witnessed live on the field during the latter half of the season.
Parker is sensational. PWoo is a beast. Phillips, Terrell, Barnes etc give us a ton of hope to build on for next season.

We won’t talk about the offense. But all we really know is we need a few more TIGERS for next season to make a dent into the top 15 rankings.
