Auburn May Have the Best Linebacker Duo in College Football

Xavier Atkins leads all college football linebackers with an exceptional grade of 95.0, while sophomore teammate Elijah Melendez places fifth nationally with a 91.5 grade according to evaluations by Cam Mellor.

Melendez opened the year with a twelve-tackle performance against Baylor and quickly earned the respect of his squad as a weekly team captain chosen by the coaching staff.
