I haven't watched film close but have we played Autry and Chris Jones on the same side? Also, with those two on the same side have we run a twist? Do we ever run twists?

Not sure... but I'm not even sure Autry is our best DE. I really think all four are about equal - Smith, Brown & Jefferson.

Jefferson is a little shorter but has looked good.

Up to this point Autry has been a non-factor. Jefferson played early and often against Auburn. He played well given the SEC road venue and limited experience. CJ, on the other hand, gets (some) penetration on most plays despite constant double teams.

Simply amazing how deep and talented State's front 7 is.
