Can We Make A Run With This O-Line

Forget the random LSU fan, but it doesn't mean we have to ignore this.... It produced 3 guys on NFL rosters (2 starters), 1 guy still on practice squads, 1 guy with a cup of coffee in the NFL, and 1 pending this coming draft. All playing on one OL in college. That's an absurd amount of talent to have on one college roster.


We do? By what measure?

Our QB is leading the league in sacks.
The rushing offense is 26th in YPC.

Hopkins is the 34th rated C.
Prince is the 60th rated T.
Carman is the 63rd rated G.
Adeniji is the 83rd rated G.
Reiff was the 50th rated T.

Spain has had a good year, and Jonah is pretty alright. Two guys doesn't make an average OL.

That's like saying "we have drafted the most players still on a roster" that we all blasted the Bengals for....lol. I wonder how much of that is due to getting a crack for simply playing in the SEC on a championship team. I remember Burrow scrambling a ton, and taking some shots. I mean, he was getting hammered in the first qtr against Clemson for example. One of the reasons people were high on JB coming here was because "he made a bad line look better, could scramble, used to playing with bad protection", etc. Am I missing something there? He was sacked almost 30 (including 5 against Bama) times in a season where he often rested in a lot of second halves vs some real cream puffs. Yeah, in other words, not that good.
