Back to the O-Line
I'd do some movement and see what happens.
Wiggins in at OC.
Move Limmer back to RG.
Kick Latham out to LT.
I guess flip Braun to LG.
Reasoning:
We have no true LT because neither are strong enough.
Limmer is a better OG then C - he doesn't have to worry about snaps and whiffing against the man in front of him. He appears so focused on delivering a good snap it affects his get-off.
Latham has never been great run blocking because size but plays hard so kick him out to LT.
Kutas at RT will get the experience and seasoning he needs playing this season.
Braun isn't a powerful run blocker which you really want at guard. IIRC E'Marion Harris had a good bowl game last year at guard.
Timing and experience is very important on the O-line.
Also coaches have to decide on whether performances are different in games than in practices.

All of this!
Limmer is a roller coaster at center, and he’s going to cost us a drive or even a game with his bad snapping.
Left tackle was a train wreck yesterday. Manuel — who the coaches have been very high on — was getting absolutely worked. Kutas was not good at RT.
We need to find a solve and quickly.

Speaking of, I don’t understand why E’Marion Harris isn’t playing. He was mashing guys in the Liberty Bowl.
I figured he’d be an opening day starter on the OL, but the coaches seem to be higher on guys like Manuel, Chamblee, and Kutas. This gets feel like practice all stars to me, whereas Harris has some good game tape (albeit a small sample size).
