A better question would be, why the frick don't we recruit better offense of an defense of linemen? Oh wait, I know, because that would require us winning championships. You can't get the big hogs without the hardware to go with it. They want to go where they can win a championship. That is the only way the big boys get recognized, so we don't recruit them well. O-Line and D-Line win championships and we don't have either one. Never really have except for a player here or there. When is the last time our O-Line was great all the way across? We have never had one like Bama or LSU.

OL has been tough for us, but we recruit DL as well as anyone over the last 10 years except maybe Bama. This year's DL class will be one of the top 2 in the nation, probably.

OL has been very tough, but why haven't we tried to fix that HUGE problem? I like our DL this year. We are basically using 3 DE's in the middle and 2 more as OLB's. That being said I thing that are edge rush is faster than last year and Deloach has been a demon flip-side Jenkins. Very impressed with him and I think he is as good as C-Rob now and will only get better. He has a true NFL frame and I love it. That boy will be a monster. Smith is playing well and the interior guys have held their own so far, but I'm sure we all watched the LSU game last week, and they truly have a great OL with huge TE's/FB. They will try to punch us in the mouth early and often. I just don't want to see another drive like Bama put on us last year. LSU will try to pound the ball ten times I a row if they have to and we will have to prove that we can stop them. This is my biggest fear going into this weekend. We haven't seen a running game like this fellas.
