what did you do with SABANFAN? I sense a lil negativity in this post. :shock: JS..... rubs eyes.....nay it must be a figment of my magination. :wink:
Not at all. It's right there in front of you. The OL has been our achilles heel all year long. Penalties, missed blocks, lack of execution. It's been the one consistent sore spot all year long. All of this team's failings (and it's been a very good year) can be placed right of the doorstep of Stacey Searles. I'm not one to whine and cry about losses, but I'm not blind. Look, I see a chance to go 11-2 with a bowl victory. That, IMO is a very successful season. Getting to the SECCG is a hell of a lot better than watching Auburn play Georgia tonight. We lost. It sucks. Congrats to the Dawgs.
I agree about the offensive line. Before the season started I thought we had the best line in the SEC. This offensive line has been manhandled all year long and they make too many mistakes. They have been nothing but a disappointment. We have to have guys on the sideline better than Livings, McGill, and Johnson. These guys get handled every play.
Those are the two effective offensive linemen and both will play in the NFL. Johnson, Livings, and McGill are the weak links.
Hmm... When I was leaving for Atlanta I had a checklist of what I needed to bring... Tickets-Check Hat- Check Football- Check Give the team a ride to the game- If I would have known that the team needed a ride I would have been more than happy to give them one...
I don't agree. We had no running game all year, whether we ran left, right or wide. I saw DLs going right by all of them at one time or another. JR was pressured on probably over 60% (wild guess) of his pass attempts. I think with excellent OL play this year you'd hear a lot less complainig about how we won those 10 games and how we lost those 2.
I watched every LSU game this year (that wasn't on at the same time as the Hawks)... for some reason Whitworth has caught my eye as someone fun to watch. You can count on him getting beat a couple of times a game. When he is, he makes his hands into fists and puts them on his hips backwards... it's the oddest thing. It's like his arms are too little for his body. Then he gets this look like, "how the heck did that just happen?" I guess that's the long version of "I don't think he's all that good"... :shock:
