The best teams in the SEC have these. Kentucky might finally have them, too

Kentucky has had a few dominant players on the defensive line in the past few seasons.

But dominant pieces don’t make a dominant group, especially in the Southeastern Conference.

This season feels different to Kentucky’s head coach, who not only sees dominant players in potential starting roles, but more dominant players pushing for those starting snaps.

As the Cats start camp this week, Mark Stoops is predicting good things for a group that hasn’t always been great during his time at Kentucky.

“I’ve said it from day one, we’re building. We’re recruiting. We’re doing the best we can to play at the level that it takes in this league,” Stoops said of the defensive line.
