Saw this on the Adidas website earlier. New Jerseys for this season? They look great even though $250 price is crazy

Top Defensive Players 2026

We should have a top defensive line again. I know what Moten, Wilson, Lightfoot and Blount can do (hopefully Lowe can step up too). I'm just expecting a HUGE year for Justin Scott, our other starting DT.

# 5 DT Ahmad Moten Sr., Miami

2025 stats: 31 tackles, 20 pressures, 9 TFLs, 4.5 sacks

Depending on who you ask or which early mock draft you consult, Moten is either the No. 1 or No. 2 defensive tackle in next year's draft class. Such is the promise the 6-foot-3, 300-pound bruiser flashed last fall from the heart of the nation's most dominant defensive line.

"Disruptive, active, plays behind the line of scrimmage -- that's what you're looking for," one ACC personnel director said of Moten. "He gets into the backfield and plays vertical."

A former three-year reserve, Moten broke into the Hurricanes' starting lineup and played the fourth-most snaps (462) of any Miami defensive lineman as a redshirt junior. While Rueben Bain Jr. and Akheem Mesidor dominated on the edge, Moten attacked up the middle, posting a career-best 4.5 sacks with 19 interior pressures that tied for sixth most among ACC defenders in 2025. He stepped up when it mattered, too. Moten tied a career high with five tackles (three solo) in the national title game against Indiana in January.

No longer flanked by first-round NFL draft picks Bain and Mesidor on the edges, Moten returns as one of the sport's elite interior forces and one of the faces of what should be another fierce Miami defensive line.

"My top defensive tackle I've watched so far is Moten from Miami," a Big Ten DPP said. "That dude's a freaking game wrecker."

Spent the last couple of weeks digging through hundreds of football cards from my dad's collection (he's been collecting since the late '80s) and mine, and decided to do something a little different. Instead of listing everything individually, I challenged myself to build a curated Miami Hurricanes collection that tells the story of The U.

I centered it around members of the 1987 National Championship team (Jimmy Johnson, Michael Irvin, Brian Blades, Bernard Clark, Danny Stubbs, Willis Peguese), then added Miami-themed Press Pass, Sage, and other collegiate cards featuring Hurricanes legends like Andre Johnson, Clinton Portis, Jeremy Shockey, Vince Wilfork, Willis McGahee, DJ Williams, Jim Kelly, and Otis Anderson.

I wanted it to feel more like a tribute to Miami football history than just another team card lot. It was honestly a lot of fun putting together, and I thought some Canes fans might appreciate it.

I included some pics; let me know what y’all think? If you were building a similar collection, who would you absolutely have to include?
