Offensive line!!!

[Allvols1996]

I know the highlight, explosive plays get a lot of attention, but our offensive line was bullish last night in both run and pass protection.

Several occasions where no gain, and short gain runs were converted to 5 yards or more. Hendon had plenty of time to survey the field.

Incredible performance!!!

Our OL held that Bama team to one sack and no QB hurries.

Best OL in the country right now, played against maybe the best DL in the country and gave up one sack and had 182 yards rushing.

This is the best OL Tennessee has had in 20 years

I’d still say Bama has the best OL in the country but we are right there with them, which is crazy to think about

Our line has gotten progressively better every game, despite dealing with some injuries. We have four guys that can play tackle at a good to high level.
Mincey has been a welcome addition.

When you puke and can still be locked in and focused your pretty damn good

Respectfully disagree. Bryce Young was running for his life the entire game and took some massive shots.

Most under rated and unappreciated part of this team. Last night they played like the best collegiate O line in the country. Just look at the stats they speak for themselves against a very very good Alabama defense.

Bamas O line held B young a lot yesterday. Our offensive line manhandled Will Anderson and company. And guess what Bama fans know it to

Our o line neutralized Will Anderson. That was a big key to the win.

When I say Mays block Anderson one and one and stuff him, I about fell down. Unbelievable performance across the board

Coach Elarbee has worked to develop all of the OL players. Seems that we see them improve each week. He, like all of the assistant coaches on this staff, has done a great job. He should get a lot of praise and credit for his hard work.

They have meshed together considerably! Like a well oiled machine

Most of his running was well into the play. Their line pass blocked exceptionally well. Plus, Young was uncanny in finding wide open players deep into the play. Even when we blitzed aggressively, he almost always knew exactly where to go. He’s a phenom and earned the Heisman.

Dudes are just studs. And this is midway in the season. They will be in top form come Georgia and that saying something coming off last night.

 

[Volador]

Men in trenches are true heroes of this game.

 

[SpookyAction]

The Big Boys got Smalls and Wright to the next level where they drug defenders further down field.
It was so beautiful to watch.

Performance of a decade! Hendon not sacked even once by alabamas “vaunted defense”. Ran for 182 yards, more than twice alabamas defense averages. Over 550 total yards.

These dudes earning it out there!

Cmon man, we gave Young a beating and Hooker was rarely touched! How is their line with a Vandy transfer the best in the nation?

I love this post. Usually To'o To'o blitzes and Will Anderson coming like freight trains. I can't remember even hearing their names called. I saw To'o To'o stand over one of our players gloating after 2 other guys made a tackle on a screen (I think it was) like he actually did something other than stand there for emotional support. Otherwise I couldn't even tell they were on the field.
