Who can say why all of a sudden they can't block anyone?

Jerald Hawkins made Wise look like Demarcus Ware out there. I'd say they had a couple other linemen pissed off they didn't get LSU offers as well.

If you don't think the players contributed to this, you can't be helped amigo.

Spare me.

There is plenty of blame to go around and the players haven't exactly put forth the effort or discipline needed or expected

They are plenty mature enough for some accountability

What is your explanation for how our OL has completely gone backwards? It was clearly the strength of our offense for 8 weeks. Now it is the weakness. What do you think happened? I'm hoping for a little be more specific of an evaluation than "how shitty the offense is".


I'll give you specifics.
Miles does not change as long as the W's are piling up despite the glaring issue's against weaker opponents.
Two returning lineman were promised to play another position if they stay.
The talk should have happened after the second game that their stock would not rise and for the betterment of the team they needed to go back to their positions were they belonged.
Another lineman should have taken Gordons place to continue to run their style of offence, possibly Wethersby if he is as good as they say.

These are just a few examples of oblivious adjustments that I just do not see Miles make year after year.

I could give you a list but I have work to do.

Jeeze. We really have become a nation of pussies. All this I feel bad for x,y&z handwringing.

Whatever happened to stoicism and a when the going gets tough mentality.

These kids don't want our pity. They probably each pull more strange in a month than most undergrads pull in their entire college tenure. And they work hard like they should and hopefully the enjoy playing football. There are tough times in every life and every field of endeavor. Don't mean you should feel bad for everyone.

They want our vocal, fanatical support - not for us to "feel bad" for them.

Another thing... the players you feel bad for have tweeted the fans are the ones letting the team down.
I wouldn't want fairweather fricks in my corner.
ETA:
Including myself, I guess. I've been as critical of their performance as anyone.

The coaches are not out there on the field playing. We are getting our asses handed to us at the line of scrimmage. I feel bad for Fournette too, but this is a team sport and he is part of the team.
