Why do people think Alabama has a good OL?

Henry gets his yards in spite of our mediocre OL. They have nearly gotten Coker killed multiple times, and it's a miracle that Simple Jake can elude pass rushers, or we would have 2-3 more losses.

Our OL is not the strength of our team.

Yep, line Henry up by himself against 11 and he gets just as many yards. That OL might as well not even be on the field.

The same reason they say we can't stop HUNH offense, the past.

there are times when they look unstoppable... then there are times (like 2nd and goal from the two on Saturday) where they look like crap.

but that's with most OLs... there's inconsistencies. Still very good

We do have a good OL. Our O-line has completed dominated several teams this year.

Just inconsistent. That's really the only thing. Elite units are consistent and pretty good units can have bad games/drives.

This isn't the elite ol we have seen in the past from Bama but it is definitely a good ol.

They have played better since the LfiveU game.

Because they don't watch/pay attention to Alabama or they want to use it as an excuse for why they don't want Henry to win the Heisman.

Bama's OL might not be its strength this year but the OL is tops in the SEC by far.... Starts with that center out to the LFT Tackle.... There's not one OL in the country that plays as well as they do in the 4QTR.

Every RB will tell you there only good as there OL....No doubt Henry earned some of his yards but there is no way you can say the OL is "mediocre".

Not sure, the most overrated player ( according to this board ) blew up that line all night long. They had nightmares about #5

No rival fans want to admit he's an elite RB. It's all they can come up with. That or pictures.

Holding is about the only thing bamas oline excels at this year.

Every single one of them, including backups/redshirts were all high school all-Americans.
Trade your OL with us or aTm or State or Auburn..., see how that works out for you.
If you are really complaining about your OL and not just trying to get attention, you should blame your coach because he is working with the best talent.

The center is good and Robinson is a rare talent.

As a group they are not as good as your 2011,2012 teams, but it is a solid offensive line.

FYI, Alabama is one of six finalists for the new Joe Morrow award that is set to honor the top OL in the country.
