I only saw part of the game on Saturday. I did notice Formby and Vandermark on the Ol. How much did they play and was it due to injuries or just trying new combinations since the OL play against the Okies was poor?

Vandermark has been in for Roberts a lot this year. Yesterday was a combo of Robert’s nagging injuries and Pritchetts poor play at tackle.

I remember Formby struggled mightily earlier in the year but holy crap, Pritchett has also really struggled.

I thought that Formby played pretty well yesterday. He was in on the first touchdown run by Milroe.

Formby played better than Pritchett, that's for sure!!

We played 2 at RG and 2 at RT vs the boogs.

All I know is if Pritchett wanted to transfer out he’d have to take a cut in NIL money. He gets abused all the time.

Still didn't see us helping them much with a TE or H-Back/RB chipping.

Vandemark has been rotating in for Roberts often this season due to injury

I noticed Formby has been coming in for Pritchett since the LSU game. Not sure why they don’t just start Formby again or if it’s some kind of platoon thing

I wish they'd stick with Formby over Pritchett. Pritchett has been getting eaten alive out there. I think part of the reason is he's fat and out of shape and maybe a smidge complacent? Regardless, he's been really bad.

The sad thing is, Proctor hasn't been much better. Like Pritchett, he too gets beat way, way too often. He desperately needs to drop at least 30 lbs this offseason and even then, I'd let him know his job is up for grabs this Spring. He can either lose the weight and fight for his job or be replaced.

We've recruited super well on the OL. Probably best in the country yet 4 straight years of mediocre OL play. Procter being a prime example. Sucked for half of last year but played better 2nd half. Hasn't been horrible this year but still not very good. Overall disappointing for a consensus 5 star

Offensive line coaching hasn't been where it needs to be for some time.

I think they’re both hurt and Proctor is fat.
