He was playing out of position and got tossed in the starting lineup after warmups.

Pritchett was the starter at LT through the spring.

He was a LT all of last year.

He’s been a tackle his entire time at Bama and is in his third season.

He was listed as an OR at RT meaning he was getting major run at tackle regardless of the situation with Proctor.

While there are differences between LT and RT they aren’t the kind of differences that should result in someone not being able to function against a team that had the 91st ranked FEI defense last year.

But he needs work on his technique and he needs to get experience.

I hope you’re right on the guessing, as for the technique I agree it was not good. My concern is had Proctor been diagnosed with a tear he would be our LT the rest of the year. I was just surprised at how far away he looked in the first game against subpar competition given the talk out of camp about him being in the mix to start at RT.

I dont think he was "not able to function" against WKU. He had a few bad plays but he wasnt Chris Capps out there.

I think he just called out the name of a very special injury insider we have in here.

I assume USF fans are trolling. None of them seriously think they have a change to win the game.

That’s some bold talk. I’d take that wager all day, everyday and twice on Sundays. I think he’s going to find this Bama team isn’t so out of whack like last years team was at that game and it won’t be pouring down rain either.

I don’t know what the line is but I expect Bama to beat these guys by at least 28 points, probably more.

I was at the USF game in Tampa last year. Worst performance by a Saban team in his 17 years at BAMA. I truly thought we'd lose 4 or 5 games after that shite show.

BAMA easily covers the -31 tomorrow night.

Let’s hope this works out as well at Finley’s pregame comments.
