The Shocking Truth Behind 2025's Most Overlooked College Football Stars Revealed

ILB Xavier Atkins, Auburn

Atkins, who is a sophomore transfer from LSU, has 15.5 tackles for loss – second-most in the country.

His 12 pressure at inside linebacker are one off the SEC lead at the position, and he’s managed them without sacrificing ability as a run stuffer: His 15 run disruptions are three more than anyone else at the position in his league.

Atkins is one of the most well-rounded players in the country, and a 36.4% pressure rate for an inside linebacker in the SEC is obscene.

The highest-profile transfer-portal question at Auburn, as the school makes a coaching change, will be around wide receiver Cam Coleman. I would argue, though, that Atkins is even more important to Auburn’s defensive future than Coleman is to the offensive side.
