you may hate pollack but he is right on money ...
"Does Alabama on the offensive line have a talent problem? Do they have untalented guys? Do they have small, tiny guys? Their center is pretty small. Besides that, do they have small, tiny guys? They are big physical dudes that should be able to move me. They should be able to move people. It doesn't make sense. The lack of toughness and physicality on the offensive line, it doesn't make sense."

The line was very good the last 2.5 quarters at Oklahoma. The decision to have Carroll at right tackle and move Formby to guard seems to have settled things down. Also helps to have Dewberry healthy.

Wow, so our Center is small and the rest of our guys lack toughness and aren't physical enough, despite being large human beings.
This is a groundbreaking analysis. We should send this info to Coach Kap!
Can't imagine why ESPN canned him.

Always has been. He’s a prick.

Pollock was also too small. The juice helped him when he was in college

Don’t understand why 75 over 77 at RG, not like 75 is very shifty or athletic, also 71 is much better than 56 at LG yet 56 got a couple series vs OU, don’t understand the shuffling this late in the season. Not like you give OL a break during games it’s like QB and need to stay in rhythm and not rotate. Thoughts?

55 played the 1st half at LG. 71 played LG the 2nd half and he was terrible. 77 played RG the 2nd half and 75 RT.
This OL Coach is terrible. His substitution pattern makes no sense unless he is trying to keep players fresh. It sure as hell isn't about productivity.
I hope to read that he will not return as OL coach for 2026.

I don't remember a time when the oline was substituted this much this late in the season except for injuries.

Proctor and Brailsford are the only ones he keeps in for the most part and shuffles the rest, very odd strategy. Never seen this before at any level.

He conveniently leaves out the fact that while Brailsford is a bit undersized, he makes up for it with quickness and technique.
Pollock is such a Georgia homer, it’s literally impossible for him to have any objectivity regarding Bama.

It’s insane. And as easy as it is to blame the OL coach there are (at least) two other coaches he has to answer to that could tell him to cut it out anytime they wanted to.

I would argue when we just ask them to come off the ball and go hat on a hat that they do well. All of the pulling and getting them into space doesn’t seem to have really caught on with this group.
