Five-stars Kardell Thomas and Clay Webb were up and down, especially Webb as he lost more reps than we’re used to seeing. Thomas was good as always but has to work on avoiding holding calls.

Look I ain't arguing that Thomas isn't an elite player. I don't think he's a tackle but I think he's got a chance to be a dominant guard for ya'll down the road but he does have to work on hand placement. That isn't a made up Bama fan myth

Brian Williams lost his 5th star, but overall A&M's guys moved up. I think our overall score went from ~261 to ~266 as we extended our lead over LSU in 3rd.

They have to say something negative probably about everyone, but leaving MVP kind of says it all. If he was holding so often he definitely wouldn't have been named MVP, sounds like just being nitpicky at a small thing.

Also, keep in mind for offensive linemen in these settings everything is working in the favor of the defensive player being 1 on 1s. As a guard in a game you are never just completely one on one with no help/backing from either side, so a little extra "holding" here and there is going to happen because the defensive player has all the advantages.

At least someone in here is using their brain instead of pissing their pants. Thanks buddy.
