That top 15 ranking got exposed in the Big 12 title game and the playoff. The scheme continuity is there because they couldn't lure a top DC, they had to promote internally. They lost multiple NFL players in the secondary and their front seven lacks proven pass rushers. They're moving to the SEC where EVERY week is a physical grind, and I haven't seen them land the kind of deensive line croots to keep that ranking lol. The spring hype is nice, but the fall reality will be different.
