Would you rather see Jonah Williams in for Bama this Saturday, or Jacob Probasco?
If Jonah Williams went down I'm guessing we'd see Korren Kirven, Matt Womack or Brandon Kennedy and not a walk-on from New Jersey.
It wouldn't be fun, but we'd adjust the gameplan and figure it out. Our 2nd string RG (playing in place of the injured Alphonse Taylor), Lester Cotton, won his matchups against Tuttle and Kongbo for most of the day.
We started a true freshman and two sophomores on the OL on Saturday, along with a true freshman QB, a quad of SO/SO/FR/FR at running back.

Ok...here is what UT was missing on the offensive line during the game (starters in Bold).
LG - Jashon Robertson (Out since aTm)
C - Dylan Wiseman (out since aTm)
LT - Brett Kendrick (ankle fist half bama)
RT - Chance Hall (ankle first half Bama)
Alabama has more depth at offensive lines and defensive lines than UT...so granted, there wouldn't be as much of a drop off for you as there was for us. But when you lose your center the week before, and have to replace him with the backup who still hasn't fully recovered from an ankle injury...you are in trouble. Some teams can recover from injuries like this. UT still doesn't have the depth to do so.

UT oline on Saturday
FR-FR-JR-SO-FR Only 3 of them have played snaps this year, Richmond hadn't played since VT. Boulware played in the 2nd half against A&M, Thomas had been on the bench since VT (Came in after Weisman got injured at A&M). Sanders (RG) hasn't played a snap since 2014 (for a reason). Tatum (RT) first game, had to burn his redshirt because we had nobody left to replace Hall when Kendrick went down.
Going up against the best front 7 in football, we had no chance in hell. And when you keep going 3 and out, you keep putting a defense that has been absolutely gutted by injuries at every level on the field against an extremely athletic offense. They had no backups left to put on the field to spell the defense.
We were doomed. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED.
Now, Triple Daves (George), you're smarter than the average Bama fan, can you please be your normal objective self here?
