I always forget how dumb the rant is until I see their reaction to Bowl. 
Yes. We legitimately believe nobody in the SEC could score on our third string D.

It makes me very pleased with myself that that took off like it did and has now become a "thing" on the rant

Other than 2011 and 2012 when has Auburn not had one of the top OLs in the conference?
There were times last year when we flat out sucked pass blocking.
What's the relevance in last year's OL to this year's class? You've yet to point out why our OL isn't the biggest question mark...If not the OL, which unit is our biggest question?mark

It makes sense that someone named booger would prop up the boogers

We weren't the best pass blocking unit, we still were one of the better OL in the conference though. Pro Football Focus backs that statement up too

How's last year's OL which was average at pass blocking going to protect Stidham?
We have guys playing new positions and completely inexperienced players at others after all. Where's your biggest question mark?

A lot of that had to do with some of the ridiculous pass blocking schemes called early in the season. By the time we played Bama we were playing a wildcat QB the whole game, which obviously hurts. We obviously had talent on the OL though. We graded out as one of the top run blocking OLs in the entire country.

You are ill.. We'll have 8 or 9 quality SEC players on the OL this season and you're acting like it's a weakness. With possibly the best in the league in Braden Smith. Just because there are questions, doesn't make it a concern. Depth is a good problem to have.

But yet we are moving Braden Smith to tackle and had to get graduate transfer linemen from Jacksonville State and FSU.

This sounds better.

Hell, they should've graded out as one of the top run blocking units, you had no passing game so all they did was run block - they were able to perfect it as a unit.

But he's no longer calling the plays...

And.. Why would we not want to improve competition and depth?
And adding former All-Americans and quality players only help the notion that it isn't a concern. Needing depth but not recruiting/having it would've been a concern.

Your O&B spin is pathetic. Nobody is going to go after two graduate transfers( one year of eligibility) if we have 9 SEC ready linemen...lol.
We had fricking Golson playing center last year. We're trying to patch up another OL this year as well.

LT-James,Tega/Ashley
LG-Bell/Harrell
C-Golson,Dunn
RG-Horton/Smith
RT-Smith/Tega/Ashley
The transfers are included in the 7 SEC ready OL on our roster, with the 8th/9th possibly being Harrell and Tega if they continue to progress. No spin needed snowflake

So you assume the two transfers and Darius James are SEC ready. You also assume Golson has to stay at Center which isn't his best position.
I feel better already!
