The offensive line that paved the way for Derrius Guice and Leonard Fournette this season has caught the eye of many. Pro Football Focus ranked it the No. 1 offensive line in the nation through Week 12.
SEC teams make up the top 3 of the list, which the site says is based on a metric that, assesses how much each line is contributing in the run game and protecting in the pass game The metric also makes adjustments based on situation and quality of opponent.
Auburn came in at No. 2, and Alabama followed at No. 3.
Hmmmm...

I think it could be better next year with Leff and kozan graduating... Horton or Harrell at the LG spot, prince at RT or maybe slide smith out there?

That shows you how much talent we wasted this year. Does it not.

yeah man sucks that we just stuck White and Pettway on the bench for no reason at all

Took them some time to gel but they ended up being pretty strong this year. Still disappointed in their inability to pick up those delayed blitzes against UGA and I thought at times we struggled against great pass rushes.
Depending on attrition I am really excited about the OL next season. If we only lose Kozan & Leff we should still be pretty good. Horton probably starts at LG and then you can either bump Golson out to RT if someone like Kim is ready or keep him at C and maybe someone like Prince starts there who is getting rave reviews. We have lots of guys that have had time to develop so I feel confident OL will be strong again next season. If we lose Braden Smith to NFL that would make things a bit more challenging

We had two shitty losses before that.

Which ultimately had no bearing on our ability to get to Atlanta

To a CFP bound team and a healthy TAMU team that was solid at the time?

Until it did...when Gus refused to take a hurt SW out of the Georgia game.

Shitty in how we lost them, not shitty in the opponent. Clemson is a possible playoff team and A&M is the best September program in the country
The UGA game to me is what makes this season feel underwhelming. Win that and I think the vibe around program is a lot different

no, how we lost was the shitty part. We were better than them and could've scored at least another TD if not for the QB carousel.

Holy frick dude. I'm thinking you might need to back away from college football.

Don't be so dramatic, Kardashian. What have I said that would warrant that suggestion?

Can we not discuss something like the offensive line without some fricknut turning it into a OMG the coaches SUCK!!1!11!!! thread?
That's my beef with your shitty post in this thread... if you want to bitch about coaches that's fine... do it in one of the 50 threads that have been started since Saturday.

Fine, I'll restate my opinion.
Praise the Lawwd that our OL was top two in the nation this year. If not, SW would've gotten injured much sooner than he did, and Gus definitely would've ended up fired.
Better?

Still as shitty as ever... which is on par with 95% of your posts.

The loss to Georgia is the one I just cant tolerate. D holds them to 6 offensive points and we LOSE on a pick six thrown by a QB who had no business in the game.
Having said that, I dont know what options Gus had other than to keep running that wildcat. JJ is terrible and JF3 just aint it.
