The Texas A&M defensive end pairing of Myles Garrett and Daeshon Hall is arguably the best in the entire country.

Last year, the duo combined for 19.5 sacks and 34 tackles for loss. Garrett’s overall athleticism and lethalness off of the edge has him on the track (barring injury) to become a high pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. Hall’s explosiveness and length also seemingly will translate exceptionally well on the next level.

Texas A&M defensive coordinator John Chavis isn’t shying away from the expectations. In fact, he’s welcoming them in a bit way.

Both Hall and Garrett will be tested this upcoming weekend in the season opener against the No. 16 UCLA Bruins. While UCLA’s offensive line group as a whole isn’t exceptionally deep, it’s two best players (by a considerable margin) up front are mammoth tackles Kolton Miller and Conor McDermott.

At 6-foot-9, 305 pounds, Miller is a very good athlete for his size. The right tackle is adept at moving laterally to combat potential speed-rushers off the edge. Miller could ultimately be UCLA’s most talented lineman.

McDermott is the veteran of the group. A potential first-round draft pick in next year’s draft, the 6-foot-8 former basketball player is protecting signal-caller Josh Rosen’s blind side. ESPN has McDermott as a Preseason All-American first-team selection, and Sports Illustrated has McDermott on its second-team.

This could be the best tackle twosome Hall and Garrett will see the entire season. Ultimately, the matchup between UCLA’s OT’s and Texas A&M’s DE’s may determine the winner of the contest.

If Garrett and Hall get consistent pressure on Rosen, UCLA’s offense could sputter. But if Rosen’s given time to throw the football, A&M may be in for a long afternoon.
