Oline as good or better than Bama, Florida, USCe

Oh, and I'm not saying our Oline is great by any stretch of the imagination, but as you can see, these teams have Oline issues, too.

We're not saying the entire OL sucks. On the contrary, Collins, Lonergan, and Williford are more than capable. Hurst is good at run blocking but average at best at pass protection. Josh D was on the ground at Auburn all night long. And he wasn't much better against the earlier creampuffs.

We could be better.

To be fair we've had a SILLY easy schedule so far.

I think it's a little bit on everybody so far this year. QB, WR's, and OLine have all had (what seems to me) more mental errors than (reasonably) expected, but we've been able to make plays when needed.

Aw, hell with it, post those stats! Bama got the benefit of the doubt with stat padding last year.

Interesting stats. I wish I had hurried pass attempts, but I can't find that stat anywhere. Obviously, these are the three teams believed to be our toughest competition left on the schedule. On paper, the stats are comparatively very close. I certainly don't want our QB getting hit, but these stats show that we're not alone....

12-10 and 1/9/12



In all honesty, nice post and thank you for posting legit stats to show we arent' the only ones with issues to fix. I've been saying WKU got 6 sacks against Bama's OLine, but half the rant won't stop slobbering Bama's junk long enough to actually look at the facts.



And for those who talk about schedule, please tell me the quality teams that the others on this list have played. LSU has Washington and Auburn. Bama has Michigan and Arkansas? Forida has aTm and Tenn. USCe has Mizzou and Vandy?

I would argue that Auburn has the best DL of all the competition right now and certainly the best individual player with Lemonier.

Can you provide a link, please?

Too positive.

We haven't played any tough competion like Bama has, so those stats are wrong, and the OL is terrible.
