"Our O line is very underrated to the point of disrespected when it comes to run blocking. The narrative has been they are so bad so regardless of how they actually perform the talk will continue to be that "they suck". The opposite is true. They have actually been pretty good this year. They have gotten better and better. They have gotten the ball carriers to the second level and opened up holes enough to be among the leaders in rushing in the SEC. LSU's OL is a lot more average than people will admit. There is a lot of youth on their OL. Great backs make the OL look good and that's the case with Fourentte."
-corner36 on our OLine over on VQ. Thought it was interesting.
I agree whole heartedly with this. Our O-line hasn't been the problem at all. Play calls hinder us more than anything else. I'd love to see us be aggressive passing on early downs. I would bet we would put up these gaudy passing numbers most fans on here whine about. We pass on obvious downs and defenses get to pin their ears back. They just manhandled the DEs of Mizzou. We ran effectively on Florida and Alabama. The O-line is far from being the problem. IMO
