O-line was most horrible of all horribles

The competition was fierce for title of most horrible (QB play, kicking game, coaching, etc., etc., ad nauseam) but I give the O-line the title.

They were somnambulant for the most part and and whenever they did show signs of wakefulness, they still got their asses kicked.

Pathetic, lackluster, weak display.

That is all.

Turnstiles would have been better.

Clapp and Teauheama are both battling injuries. I thought our tackles looked much more athletic than last year in pass protection.

It's not the olines fault we lost. It's this terribly designed offense.

They have bought into their own awesomeness.

It amazed me to watch those cheese-fed pudgy kids from Wisky who lacked starting time by comparison step up and gel as a unit.

It all coaching.

Besides overall offensive scheme I agree. They were pitiful. How Grimes name isn't mentioned with same haste as Cam and Les I don't know.

Stipulated: the offense is unoriginal, predictable, and uninspiring.

But is it also designed so that the O-line can't fight to block?

We had two first time starters at tackle and our two best guards are both battling injuries to their lower extremities.


I'm not saying they looked all world, but it's not their fault we lost. They played well enough and actually looked better in pass protection than we did last November.

The funniest part is I've been saying it will be a major weak spot all off season. Yet people are blind and were trying to say it will be one of best o lines we've had

The O-line was not horrible. Harris has no idea what to do with the ball. The defense knows exactly what Cam's unimaginative game plan is. They prepare to stop 3 plays. How can anyone blame the O-line?

Moffit needs to go! Miles had a chance to fire him last season and did not.

LSU clearly getting manhandled in the trenches

It's tough to make a decision when you have 4 defenders in your face in under two seconds
