We have in need of a lot of improvement on this line. Just watching the line play they are getting beat bad play in and play out.
Our offensive Cordinator has his work cut out on him on play calling to make up for this offensive line play. Going to be a long season here vol fans!

It's going to to be tough sledding all year long. They just don't have the bodies and the level of talent

They suck and need to improve...

Meanwhile...24 - 12 VOLS @ the Half does NOT suck...

Gonna have to call a lot of quick slants, and screens to keep their D from rushing Worley.

I think the O-Line will be pretty good come November. Its going to be a rough ride till then. If they don't protect Worley better he won't make it the entire season. Uga, Fla, and Bama would eat this line alive right now.

Worley will help out if he keeps sometimes on the read option and not hand off right into the teeth of the rush where the DE has already crashed inside. Keep running WR screens to widen the field. Just my 2 cents.

They need to greatly improve. Worley running for his life today. Hurd has saved them several times with is blocking.

So far it appears the o-line is the only thing holding us back from competing at a pretty high level.

Arky State is getting way too much pressure on Worley. I dread seeing how Georgia, Alabama, and Oklahoma will look against this line.

I don't think we have a quick slant in the play book. Drives me crazy we don't throw it to these WRs in motion with this o-line. They are getting manhandled at the point of attack. I've watched the LG get pushed 7 yards back in 2 steps. They are struggling.

That said, we're winning & I've been really impressed with Worley overall.

They will be abused in the SEC IMO. They need more experience and another offseason of strength and conditioning. Should be good next year though.

2 years in a row with an underperforming line. There were plenty opportunities last year to get these guys game experience (blow out losses if nothing else). We have talent (based on stars) but it's not translating to the field

Is it the system or the coaching?

Yep, the OL sucks really bad. Can't beat SEC teams with a garbage OL that can't even handle Arky St.
