This doesn't really add up. Our RBs are the main reason we even get yards on runs. The OL is constantly being pushed into the backfield and the RBs have to scrap to get back to the LOS and then beyond. They're actually pretty good.


Wasn't your OL supposed to be the big deal this year?

Big deal as in good? Hell no. I think you could go back and look at any OM poster's history this offseason and see we all knew our biggest weakness would be OL. Not only are we razor thin, but we're inexperienced.

LT: Tunsil - phenomenal, but a sophomore
LG: Aaron Morris - a Junior, but was injured all last season
C: Ben Still - a Junior. First year starting and first year at center
RG: Justin Bell - Junior, but just not very good
RT: Fahn Cooper - JUCO Junior, first year with team

And behind them are a bunch of sophomores and freshmen.

We all knew our strength this season would be our defense, in particular the DL and secondary.
