Do we have another center, because we need one.

Richmond was no better.

I couldn't tell from my vantage point, but I thought Richmond did ok, he didn't give up a sack.

All the pressure came from up the middle

Jashon Robertson was bad, too. They seemingly regressed as an entire unit. I wasn't expecting them to be great, but damn.

Not sure which player was the biggest problem but the oline play was extremely disappointing after having dealt with a bad line for several years now and having thought we finally had a decent one

Couldn't really tell from the student section, but I didn't really see anyone on the line holding their own. Seemed like the floodgates were open all night

Wild. He was one of our best lineman last year. Gotta hope that he bounces back from the slow start. That was ugly

I don't understand what happened with him. I thought he was pretty good last year.

Pretty much summarizes the entire game in one clip. If the center plays better then the game goes well. If you're center is getting his arse whipped every play you will struggle. That kind of play also takes away Dobbs ability to escape. It's a lot harder to get away from someone barreling down on you like that than it is someone coming from the side.

Looking at it again...does his right cleat slip in the turf when he plants? So, Thomas wiffs at him and Robertson blocks nobody. That is crazy bad. Thomas tries to trip him and can't even touch his leg, he is so badly out of position.
