Oregon didn't even block Fairley in the BCSNC game. They let him through on quite a few plays, I think they learned you have to block DTs in the SEC.


If you are going to attribute Fairly to the SEC as a "typial" d-lineman. I'm calling BS.

Oregon 48 Tenn 13......... Did you forget about that one? In that game that SEC d-line actually was "begging" Oregons offense for a breather. One of those SEC d-linemen actually told an Oregon o-lineman that if Oregon kept that pace he was going to puke on the field.......

So please, give me a break on the SEC stuff. Now I'm going to tell you the LSU d-line scares the hell out of me. They look like they should be GREAT. But please........ get a bit closer to reality.

If Tennessee had any depth at all they probably would have won that game. They were starting an insane amount of freshman and sophomores and that really showed in the 2nd half of a few games.

You do realize that Tenn had no depth and the pace of Oregon wore them out in the second half. I believe it was tied at half-time, so dont make it out like it was a complete beat down. Tenn had some talent, but just no depth...against a type of offense like oregon, it was just a matter of time. However, LSU has depth....and are better than the DLine of Tenn.....LSU wins this game 28-16.
