Our O-line looks better with C-Rod back. So are they improving or do our other backs suck?

That offensive line is about fourth on the list of problems for Kentucky's offense.

Number One - Rich Scangarello. Both his play calls and system.

Number Two - Will Levis. His refusal this year to pull down the ball late in the play, and his insistence on "making a play" when none is there.

Number Three - The Running Back room. They have two really good speed backs that can not run through any contact. And two backs, Rodriguez and McClain, that can. Scangarello just "discovered" McClain last week.

Number Four - The Offensive Line. Specifically, their inability to run a bunch of different offensive line schemes, which is how the pros do it.

I watched that offensive line, against South Carolina, create a push on runs against a nine man front. Yes, nine men in the box, in obvious on their own goal line run situations. The biggest problem is not the offensive line.
