I did not have that on my Tigers in the NFL Bingo sheet.

Yes, this is only because starter (Tunsil) and backup are injured. But still... Best of luck young man.

I thought he was still playing right tackle for LSU.

It's cool to see a 50 year old starting in the NFL. Collecting his pension while he's still playing

I don’t think they are hating on Austin. They probably don’t even know who he is. They just know a 3rd string LT going up against Watt is a terrible match up

Haven’t seen him play in a while, but I assume he is finally healthy. His lateral mobility was always negatively impacted by his injuries. He is warrior and played through a lot of pain and problems. Will never knock him in anyway due to the toughness he displayed at LSU from day 1.

He started on that 2019 line that was so loaded that a future day one NFL starter was on the bench (Ingram).

He looks like a larger Tim Riggins from Friday Night Lights (series)

How ironic since Deculus seemed to need medical attention at least once every game of his 8 year college football career.

That line wasn’t that good. It’s was ok, but Burrow made them look elite. He burned the blitz and some teams would consistently drop eight.

Burrow and the whole scheme benefitted the OL. But it should be mentioned that all five OL were drafted. Probably doesn't happen that often.

One team consistently dropped 8. One. Everyone else mixed in lots of blitzes. That line was super elite. What else do you need to agree? They were named the best line in the country. Four of them - FRIGGIN FOUR - earned starting jobs in the NFL during rookie camp!!!! I need you to read that again. That might never have happened in the history of football. Five of them have started in the NFL. Two of them are elite NFL linemen. And when they were together in college they blocked for the most prolific offense in college history.

I often tell folks who believe as you do, go rewatch the Bama game. That line mauled Bama. Clyde had lots of runs on which he ran four yards downfield before he was touched. Burrow had time unless Bama sent numbers.

Against all that evidence we have only one thing to set - a small group of rantards say “Muh, that line sucked.”
