Um, its not because its simply incorrect. Eric Gray is the best back we have had here not named Kamara in over a decade and hes the one slammed to the turf in the discussed play. If his skillset lends to anything, its identifying the and making the first tackler miss with a quick cutback. The play was just blown up. There are probably 10 running backs in the world that make Mathis miss in that situation and cut back against the grain & blocking scheme and theyre all playing on Sundays.
The best back WE have had------------that's not including the other sec teams. Holla at me when the sec awards are handed out.
Eric Gray starts on every team minus Alabama, and is at worst 1A at Georgia, and TAMU.
We have PUH-LENTY of flaws on this team. Hell, our backfield has plenty. I don't know what has happened to Ty Chandler, hes regressed each of the last 2 years. Even though I'm defending him, Gray has left yards on the field - and is yet to produce an explosive run. But he's BY FAR our offensive MVP and a really nice back that we shouldnt minimalize due to our overall slaw of an offense.
ERIC GREY doesn't start at LSU, AUBURN,UF, OLE MISS, MSU, Al, Uga, A&m, UK, SC, ARK, ---Man what a homer. And MIZZOU. Watch Roundtree sometime.
I know who Adam Anderson is, he was a 5 star on some sites, a very high 4 star on others. Like I said above, Cade graded out at a 52 pass blocking and 39 run blocking that day. The only person on the line who did worse was fellow former 5 star Wanya Morris, he was in the 30's on both.Cade got beat there on a speed rush by an electric pass rusher. Those who have been in RF for a while remember Adam Anderson, who we had a shot at signing and how excited we were about that. He's an elite athlete. That being said....
Ojulari was beating Wayna like a dog on the other side. ALL. GAME. LONG. Thats why you saw #87 Warren in on that side to help (or at least thats what he was supposed to do). So UGA has 6 on the right side of the field, and we have to keep the extra blocker in to help on the left side. We leak the RB in on a route and Jacob Warren has his thumb up his ass on the left side as Cade gets beat badly.
I feel Georgia has a better defense. Bama has the best offense I have seen this year. Ole' Miss logged a bunch of points and yrds on them. They are hanging half a hundred on everyone. Kentucky probably played their best game of the season last week, while we stunk it up on all 3 phases. TN has alot of work and a few missing pieces to add. Sorry guys, can't afford a new coaching staff so I guess we will have to gas up the old truck and drive.The OL did a whole lot better than they did against the Bulldogs.
Our whole o line was pathetic against GAIt's far more than one play. He got owned repeatedly in the Georgia game as well. Gave up 2 sacks, 1 hit, 3 hurries, 6 total pressures and 2 penalties. 52.7 pass blocking grade, 37.9 run blocking grade.
Facing their biggest test, the Tennessee offensive line was a massive letdown against Georgia
In all fairness, the online has to block 8-9 man fronts. until the demended is forced to play off the ball it will be rough for them.
I'm starting to think Saban maybe right about Kiffin stealing signs considering how Ole Miss hasn't busted 30 points on Arkansas or Auburn.

Fair enough, and I'm really not hating on the guy, he just hasn't been what we hoped thus far. Hopefully this means he'll come back next year.Look, im not apologist for Cade. I got flamed relentlessly in the offseason for saying he had done nothing on the field to prove worthy of leaving early and being picked in the first 3 rounds. The GA game goes out the window for me. Everyone was pathetic. Outside of that, he has actually been about what I personally, expected. Expectations were too high. Hes an above average SEC interior lineman, that can be a swing tackle when in a pinch. Good to have. Hes been beat several times, and had some good blocks as well. I think most people had too high expectations, and showing him getting beat a couple times on film by 2 really good players doesnt mean he sucks or has been terrible.
