By the middle of the 3rd qtr it wont matter we will be up by at least 3 TD's and we will be on our 2nd string lineman at that time anyhow.
Although we have depth at o-line, Chris Faulk's injury is significant. He was the best o-lineman that we have and as we've seen, we've struggled at that spot since it happened. Still pretty good to average 250+ yards rushing per game, but lets see what happens against an SEC defense.
Why all the dumping on Dworaczyk? The guy has played fine all year. He got hurt in the Idaho game and couldn't go anymore. He sat on the bench the rest of the game with ice bags strapped to his leg. If he OK this Saturday, he will start at left tackle. Moving Collins out to tackle didn't work out all that well and Hurst has never really played on the left side, they just didn't want to put a new guy at left tackle. We should be grateful that it was only a deep bruise and not a knee injury. We really can't afford another season-ending loss on the o-line.
We can't afford a season ending loss on the QB position. If he starts against Auburn, I suspect he will be tested by Lemonier.
"Seems like Josh D. was struggling mightily at LT." -- Cajun Sensation "I read Josh D got yanked" -- Cajun Sensation "Josh D., at left tackle gave up two speed rush sacks in succession toward the end of the second quarter. He looked crippled and just stood there. " -- Dudley "The official story is that he was pulled because of a thigh bruise. Make your own judgement" McTiger "If it's one spot that could prove problematic, it's the LT position." -- MASTERMIND Well . . . people are ignoring that he was injured before giving up the sack and suggesting that he was "yanked" and even that the injury may be bogus.
Do you really want N. Texas' defense over AU's? They've played Clemson and MS State - two pretty good offenses. Ark got torched by Bama. Even Ole Miss played Texas. Again, let's see how we stack up against an SEC D and potential All American in Lemo. Dworaczyk has been solid for us for quite some time now, so I believe we'll be fine.
