Captain obvious statement here…it’s crystal clear, our front 5 on the OL will determine whether or not this team wins the next game and a possible Natty. Simply put, it’s on them and they must step up or our season ends. The self inflicted false starts must stop.
They have received accolades all year proclaiming them as one of the best OL’s in the country. However, they were dominated by the GA DL, twice and lost both games. Now, everyone knows GA has a DL full of future Sunday starters and were not shocked by our challenges to run against that front.
ASU is not GA and our OL got their collective asses kicked yesterday trying to run block. Despite having a 60+ LB per man advantage, the smaller DL constantly got off blocks and made tackles…a bunch at or behind the LOS. Our pad level was shockingly bad…too upright, losing the leverage of strength and not driving their man back. It was stunning to watch their performance.
Sark & Flood need to light a fire or the Buckeyes will kick our ass in the Cotton Bowl. I love Wisner but we desperately need more size/strength in the backfield. CJ is missed in these big games when we need to run against talented DL’s. He’s capable of moving the pile 2-3 yards when nothing is there.
Let’s go men, it’s up to you!!
HOOK’EM 🤘🏻
