So you are above this stuff eh?

As much as we make of the beef on the oline supporting the running game, they were actually more impressive in protecting the QB. They allowed the fewest total sacks and fewest sacks/game in the conference.
Maybe because they run the ball a lot?

No. Just occasionally like to talk actual football. I try to be selective with my jackassery.
Running the ball is one explanation, and could help explain the success of teams like Auburn, Alabama, and Georgia.
But if running the ball frequently was the only explanation, LSU (1st) and MSU (3rd) should not finish in the bottom half of the conference in terms of sacks allowed. And I'd argue that teams like Auburn, Bama, and Georgia also have very good offensive lines... like Arky.
Missouri's defense only registered one game last season with fewer than 2 sacks, and that was against Arkansas in which they got 0 sacks. That would be my other indicator that the piggies have a good line.
