TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Dalvin Tomlinson is Alabamas other defensive end.He should not be hard to miss at 6-foot-3, 310-pounds. He was a three-time Georgia state champion wrestler and former high school soccer player -- and he is a pretty good football player, too. Tomlinson, however, is often overshadowed by All-Southeastern Conference teammate Jonathan Allen.Dalvin is a big part of this defense, said Ryan Anderson, a linebacker for the top-ranked Crimson Tide. He doesnt get a lot of credit he deserves, but Dalvin is a monster. Hes been that way for a while.Tomlinson made seven tackles in last weekends win over No. 23 Mississippi for Alabama, which hosts Kent State on Saturday.The senior was the first guy off the bench on Alabamas ocean-deep defensive front last year, but didnt log his first career start until the opener against Southern California this season.Anderson rates Tomlinsons hand placement technique as the best among the Tide defensive linemen and says hes one of the fastest, too. Hes as likely to bat balls down with his long reach as to sack a quarterback, which is where Allen, Anderson and linebacker Tim Williams most excel and what typically draws the most attention.That doesnt seem to bother Tomlinson, who does have one sack this season and says he doesnt feel underrated.Not really because I dont look at it from the media standpoint, he said. Im just here to help my team out and help us get the win. As long as Im helping my teammates out, Im happy with that.His career got off to a slow start after tearing his left ACL playing soccer as a senior at McDonough County High School in Georgia. He redshirted in 2012 and played in only one game the following season before tearing his right ACL.Tomlinson wasnt one of the Tide linemens more highly rated recruits out of high school and was a late addition to the recruiting class.Hes undoubtedly the most accomplished wrestler of the group. Tomlinson went 49-0 as a senior and became the first Georgia heavyweight to win three consecutive state titles, losing only two matches in his prep career.The first one was my first-ever varsity match and I was nervous and lost by points, said Tomlinson, who pinned his state title match opponent in nine seconds as a senior. And the second one I got disqualified for hip-tossing a dude onto his neck.He feels like wrestling helped him learn the art of getting leverage as a defensive lineman. Tomlinson has also put on considerable weight, surprising Anderson when he tipped the scales at about 310 pounds recently.Hes been an outstanding player for us, Tide coach Nick Saban said. Hes gotten better and better each year. He was a little bit undersized when we recruited him. Hes gotten bigger and stronger and now hes a pretty effective player on a consistent basis.Tomlinson played in all 29 games off the bench the past two seasons after recovering from the knee injuries. Finally, hes a starter for the defending national champions.Its pretty surreal, Tomlinson said. Im still trying to get used to it. Freshman year there was a lot of adversity I had to overcome being injured with the ACL. I just had to keep working through it and being here, coach Saban teaches you to keep grinding and working hard, (and) good things are going to come to you. So now Im playing a lot and Im just going to keep grinding for my teammates.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org Clearance Air Jordan Store .
