The lone UT bright spot going into 2013 was the OL... to date, they're underperforming big time. This season could really get off the tracks quickly for butch if he doesn't watch out.

Looking forward to South Alabama getting the 'W' over UT this Saturday!

Unlikely, but not outside the realm of possibility.

A lot of people on the "offensive line is underperforming" train. I say we have no clue as we are running the same read option play for 99% of our run plays. The read option is useless with a QB who can neither run, nor throw. You're left with a slow developing draw, and a RB who has never been good at seeing holes.

I wish the staff would come up with a few more run plays, and maybe put the QB under center.

I recognize our dearth of offensive talent, but the staff's unwillingness to accommodate our roster is a bit concerning.

It has me thinking they have the offensive acumen of a high school staff. But I also know we have to give them time.

Jesus people. We don't have the horses right now to be a good offensive team. The OL is not going to open holes when we have WRs that can't get open and a QB who can't run or throw.

Florida played press man the entire game and our WRs were blanketed so they stacked the box and stopped the run. 5 OL vs. 8 DL and LBs is a recipe for not opening holes regardless of the scheme.

I swear....some of y'all worry me with the constant questioning of our staff. There's a reason you didn't get a call for the job

Well you have a QB that can run....as soon as Jeff went down I knew we were fricked if the backup could run.

Jeff is faster than Tyler. Jeff can run. Well, not now, since he's on crutches and about to have a metal plate put in his leg.

The guy who tackled him apologized to him on Twitter and since he had a torn Achilles that still bothers him then I doubt he had malicious intent
