What do you expect from our most experienced guy on the O-Line Saturday?


For him to be the anchor he is. Unless he isnt 100%, then give him a series and let Hines have back at it.

Hines is young. At least we all know next year Hines is gonna fill in really well. Brumfield is better and is the leader of the O-line like DW is the leader of the defense.


I think that whole "leadership" tag has a different meaning from White to Brumfield. I don't think Brumfield being the leader of the OL is going to help you beat Bama if he's getting beat.

I also think it's VERY arguable that a guy like Hines who has seen a lot of action lately is better than Brumfield who hasn't played live football for six weeks and hasn't played significant snaps in an even longer time period. Lets also not forget that Brumfield wasn't performing at the top of his abilities even when he was healthy either.

This was my point, and is very well put.

We'll be just fine. An experienced senior starting and a guy in Hines who's playing well, to jump in when he's tired.

I'll take the addition to the depth chart. Just hope there's no Boutte or V.Alexander type retaliation penalties if R.Davis starts throwing punches.

I think the senior with his last chance to take down the tide will get it done.

Our best offensive linemen starting is something to be nervous about?

No, you want Brumfield (Bruiser) starting saturday. He is the experience vet and the captain of the O-line. You want him out there making the calls. He is incredibly important to this team and we missed him quite a bit.

If he sucks, then Hines will come in. The luxury of depth

I'm more concerned with Deculus having a strong performance than our interior O-line. Hines off the bench is a good problem to have.
