    If they said it during the game I must have missed it, but I didn't hear any news after he went back to get X-Rays.

    I think him being out was bigger than we realize. T-Bob had at least one major holding penalty that I can remember. I also remember the right side of the line getting lit up on a few plays.

    Any news on him?

    That's not good if you are correct. I think most would agree that the right side of the O-Line had more question marks going into this game than the left side, and that certainly would not help.

    Is T-Bob our best option as a backup RG? What about Washington,Williford or some other young guy?

    Broken right ankle is the word.

    T-Bob for now IMO but I expect Williford will get some time. Washington is still in transition from OT to OG. Still learning both and will likely need some time.

    T-Bob still not SEC material yet. Losing Blackwell is huge.

    :geaux:Exactly what I thought when he went down. Was hoping to see Williford come in and thought he was listed on the 2-deep as Blackwell's backup. Hope we see him (Williford) soon. T-Bob was getting beat often and doesn't really have the size to play OG, IMO. Just gotta hope for the best. :LSU231:

    Well, those words could also have described Bobby as the QB for the Saints...

    Blackwell

    Blackwell is a topic no one is talkin about at all. Whats the latest on him? And why did Tbob Hebert replace him and not Williford?
