Josh Pate

Heard some rumors on another board regarding the same. Pate unofficially confirmed it today. Reading between the lines Milton was suspended and the team(notably the OL) allowed USF to to have multiple free shots at the QBs. I haven't seen the game, but there was a lot of talk immediately after the game on boards about offensive lineman completely whiffing to the point it was noticeable.
If any of this is true, there's bigger problems in Tuscaloosa than anyone imagined.

They didn't block against Texas when Milroe was in there.

This is stupid.

Then what was their reason for not blocking against Texas?

Why wouldn’t they block? Seems like a good way to get benched.

I don’t doubt Milroe being suspended. Greg McElroy said the same thing on his show in Birmingham this morning. Milroe didn’t respond well. Saban sat him because of it.

Presumably just about any offensive lineman good enough to sign with Bama has at least an outside shot at the NFL. Why the hell would anyone jeopardize their status in the eyes of the NFL because of the QB? If the guy who got benched was my best friend and the guy who took his place was my worst enemy, I would still block my arse off. You're blocking for your future, not the QB.

I don't believe this.

their tackles weigh 350 pounds. that is way too heavy for the tackle position. They are not agile enough to stop a good pash rush

This is just planted info to take pressure off their horrible qb situation.

I can’t believe guys trying to make it to the next level are going to purposely put garbage on film.

Josh Pate generally has no idea what he's talking about, he just says it with enough authority that people buy it.
