A look at Auburn's PFF grades on defense against LSU

In this story:
Auburn's defense gave up 563 total yards and 48 points in Saturday night's loss. It should come as no surprise that not many Auburn players graded well on the defensive side of the ball.
Auburn defensive lineman Justin Rogers led the way with the highest overall defensive rating. The only other defensive player who got a grade in the 70s was cornerback DJ James. The Tigers had a hard time slowing LSU down in the first quarter and in the second half.
