... on the Texags daily show. In case you missed it, he was most impressed by the blocking of our WR's. Ding, ding, ding! I know this is a Sumlin hallmark and they really preach this stuff and we've had some good ones - Swope comes to mind immediately. But I've never seen the entire unit look THIS good at blocking. They were just spectacular - every damn one of them. I thought so watching the game and had to watch the replay a few times to make sure I wasn't making shite up. Nope! Just watch the first two plays. Holy cow. They were outstanding.
I worry a bit about playing, say, Oregon in the NC game with our secondary. And yes, I'm going there . Old lady SafetySam suggested Howard would make a better LB, and I'd agree if we (ETA: oops, he) wasn't needed in the secondary. That guy is a tackling machine, he just gets eaten up by the dumbass in his current position. But our offense? SEC is fricked. LSU has been successful at containing JFF with really good DE's. Guess what, coonasses? That's no longer an issue. I guess Auburn scares me a little bit, and Gurley in the SECCG, but this is shaping up to be a spectacular year one year ahead of schedule.
Bourbon and me say so. So I'm right, dammit.

EZ was great as well and it showed in his preseason action with the Texans. He threw some vicious blocks.

It was mentioned on SECN film room recap of our game, too. Our WRs flat murder their blocks every snap and seem to enjoy doing that just as much as catching the ball. So awesome to watch

People really misinterpret what Oregon does.
Oregon is a run-first offense. Stanford and Arizona both showed that if Oregon is forced to abandon the run, Mariota is not the kind of player who can methodically pick apart a secondary.
