Poole is a great back....name one UT back to do more than Poole did last year behind a true freshman line.....name one. This oline is flat out bad it isn't our RBs faults.
we don't have true freshmen lines, but that doesn't change that we struggle to find the seams that are there or cut to exactly where people are.
I guarantee you that Chuck Webb, Reggie Cobb, Jamal Lewis, Travis Henry, Travis Stephens, Shawn Bryson, etc, etc, etc could have run the ball behind the this line.
Seriously, though, UF doesn't have any lights-out receivers. Trey Burton? Not a serious separation threat. We knew all week long that Florida would pass to the RBs out of the backfield on screens and it looked as though we weren't prepared for that. The first UF drive consisted almost entirely of short passes to the RBs. They ran the same play 2x very successfully. How were we not ready for that??
