That is amazing considering Ainge's limited mobility. Give it up to our O-Line guys.

They got blaseted by the media and us after the FL game. They have stepped up and made a statement.

Congrats to our Offensive Line. My MVP of the game.

Ainge is a pretty mobile QB, he can't run a 4.5 forty or anything, but that was amazing when he caught Castille to keep them from scoring that TD on the INT.

The O-line has been spectacular since the FL game and it continues to gel together and looks like a great pass-blocking D, but it still needs to work on the run assignments.

His longest run of the year is 3 yards. He can roll out on PA but he is slow man. He is elusive in the pocket though.

He did a good job of getting rid of the ball the few time he had heat.

He looked like a 4.4 guy on that run down. Must have been an adrenaline rush.

Unsung heroes for sure. I thought Ainge was a pure pocket passer but he showed me he can roll out and throw on the run yesterday.

Very true, when he rolls out he looks like Kurt Warner sometimes, but I think its because he knows if he gets going too fast his accuracy is affected more.

Alabama isn't exactly lining up the next Reggie White and Michael Strahans... I think they only have 6 sacks on the year as a team.

The pass-protection remains stellar by the Vols' o-line however. Can't ask for more from those guys as far as protecting Ainge goes. Ainge isn't a burner, but he's mobile enough. Definitely not a statue back there.

Ainge has underrated Mobility. Bama had no sacks but they were chasing Ainge.

Against Florida, Ainge was sacked a few times but he was doing a good job running around. It could be well more sacks. What is his 40 like 4.8.

What is Crompton's anyways? Just wondering.

After checking, we lead the SEC in sacks given up with 5. Arkansas gave up a sack against Ole Miss this past weekend giving them 6 on the seasons. The weird thing about them is that they have gave up a sack in all but one game(Auburn) but haven't given up more than 1 sack in any game. This is pretty good considering how much more we pass than Arkansas.
