Our offensive line paved the way for over 200 yards rushing...there are definitely things we need to work on but I think we will be alright. I agree we need to incorporate the tight ends more. A name to watch is shaq Roland. I think he cracks the starting lineup by the end of the year. Shaw looked much bigger throwing the ball on the last scoring drive. I wouldn't sound the alarm bells on our passing offense just yet. Vandy is an irritating team to play because you feel like you should crush them but it doesn't seem to happen. They gave uga and ark all they could handle last year and Jordan Rodgers has gotten better since last year IMO.

Against one of the smallest defensive lines in the SEC. They were getting pressure on Shaw practically every time he dropped back to pass. That's why I say your OL is in trouble. They can run block pretty well. But their pass blocking skills are well below average. If they can't block Vandy's defensive line when Shaw drops back to pass, how the hell are they going to block Georgia's or Florida's?

You have to remember that those lines are built to stop the run. You're not going to see the same success running the zone read against those two teams.
