As the o-line goes, so goes a team’s offense. So which SEC teams are the strongest upfront heading into 2016?
ESPN’s Alex Scarborough ranked the offensive lines top to bottom:
- Alabama
- LSU
- Georgia
- Tennessee
- Auburn

- Florida
- Texas A&M
- Ole Miss
- Kentucky
- Vanderbilt
- South Carolina
- Mississippi State
- Missouri
