This take overstates Penn State's impact. Auburn's offensive line returns four starters and ranked 15th nationally in fewest sacks allowed last season. That protection will hold against any front. The SEC has faced elite defensive recruiting for decades, and Auburn's quarterbacks are built for it. Our QBR in conference play last year was top 25 nationally, proving Auburn Tigers can handle complex schemes. The real pressure is on Big Ten offenses trying to keep up with SEC speed.
