It wasn't Tyler!
It wasn't Bo!
It wasn't the injuries!

It was the O & D lines, period.

We couldn't stop the run on D.
We couldn't run the ball on O.

Fix the lines and I am quite certain that our win total will increase next year, period.
I believe despite loosing all the O players, we will win more games.
And if the injury bug can work in our favor then that will only add icing on the cake!

You heard it here 1st.

In the Bowl game we started 3-5 year seniors on the o-line!

Serious line issues.

Is it good in bowl game when we rush 37 time 107 yard for 2.9 average and ECU rushes 41, 281 for 6.9 average.
Is it good for season when we average 3.8 yard per rush, oppo avg 4.6--espec given that 4-5 of our opponents very bad teams.

Seniors ≠ Good

Just cause you've been around the block a couple times doesn't mean you have the talent (mental and physical) to compete. Many times you can have addition by subtraction.

The seniors on the line were good - they played well last year. However, I'd say that just because they were able to start doesn't mean they were 100%. Now the young linemen know just how much stronger they need to be. They certainly have potential, but they have a ways to go to be as good as the lines of the past few years.

No lineman will play an entire season and be 100%! This is simply an excuse, one we use every year, kids have to make plays, we did not.
