Josh's Top Five SEC Defensive Linemen

1) Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina)
2) Anthony Johnson (LSU)
3) Dominique Easley (Florida)
4) Trey Flowers (Arkansas)
5) Bryan Jones (Arkansas)

Over the last 8 seasons in college football there hasn't been a more dominant conference in the country than the South Eastern Conference. With 7 straight national championships the SEC has become the hot bed of big time players and games. Over the years the SEC has been known as a defensive minded conference, and 2013 is no exception. Lead by Jadeveon Clowney, who might be the best player in the country this year, the SEC has no lack of talent along the defensive line this year.

Clowney is a clear cut #1 on the top defensive linemen list, followed by Anthony Johnson of LSU, who as a sophomore looks to improve on a 10 tackle for loss, and 3 sack season in 2012 and lead the Tigers' defensive line as they push for a 2013 SEC championship. Followed closely by Florida's brash, trash talking interior linemen Dominique Easley who may be ready to break out in 2013 similar to Sharrif Floyd last season.

The final two spots on this list are a part of a very underrated Arkansas Razorback defensive line in Trey Flowers and Bryan Jones. Flowers and Jones are both among the more dominant linemen in the country and coming off strong 2012 seasons look to lead a much improved Razorback team in 2013.
