First it was McElroy calling out our O line mid-week and now Pollack on Game Day breaking down how pitiful our O line played last week.... We are a joke to everyone, they all laughed and said if we win big tonight, all will be forgiven and UT fans will think we will run for a national championship again... Butch and Mahoney should have our line locked in a room all day watching McElroy and Pollack roast them-- maybe, just maybe they will come out a little nasty and play like they are capable of. They should have this one game to redeem themselves and their starting jobs, but if they can't get it done tonight, we better see guys like Jack Jones, Big Charles, and anyone else willing to step up and go.... Heck, throw Picou over to the O line and see what he can do....I hope this is not deemed as acceptable play to the coaching staff.... these kids are playing/starting based on practice performance and earning a scholly for an education. Just like in the working world, if you are "doing your best and giving your all", but you are making mistakes and costing me money and hurting the business, you would eventually be fired and replaced... I think we are missing Zach Stewart more than we think.. He was known for bringing physical, chippy play-- he, and along with a Jack Jones type attitude would do wonders for this O line at this point. Yes, it is one game, but that performance was much more than a few missed assignments and missed blocks... Breaking that game down and breaking our Offense down, even if we truly ran the same 5 plays and our O line had done their job, Dobbs has time to throw, WR's have a few extra seconds to finish routes, and Hurd/Kamara have descent holes to work with and are not met in the backfield... we will go as the O line goes unfortunately this year and it's not looking good. Hopefully the staff earns their paycheck this week and has them ready to rumble in the trenches...

I agree. They need to play much better or else, we're going to struggle the whole season.

Go ahead and put in Jack Jones if they stink it up again. Why not? what are you saving for next season, when Dobbs, Kamara and (very likely) Hurd will be gone. Win this year, or GTFO Butch.

Booger McFarland called them out on SEC Nation last night too individually. Showed that clip of Coleman Thomas getting put on his rear too.

I hope the coaches road their a--es all week and forced the O line to listen to this chatter about them at full volume.

That display against App was pathetic. Probably as bad an effort as the first Oklahoma game.

Hope the national embarrassment gives them(OL) a bit of a mean streak that sticks with them.

man, not good for us, and I may get roasted, but I think A&M may push or beat AL if they are really that good.... we will see a lot when they play Auburn next week.

I'd be ready to put the next lineman in. Sometimes there is a difference between a practice player and a game player. Hate it, but it's true. I think Jack Jones is a gamer.
