Our rushing stats will start climbing as the season plays out? No?

October is a tough month. If the rushing stats climb, then UT is having better success on offense against UGA, USCjr, & Bama.

That's improvement.

They haven't been taught how to run block. They don't fire off the ball like good run blocking teams do.. 3 or 4 of them will be on NFL rosters regardless.

People already nailed it. Pretty easy to stop the run when there isn't much threat in the passing game. It also seems like we run better when the play doesn't take 100 years to develop. That seemed to be a better adjustment between Oregon and UF (what little we can take away as a positive from those games).

Good point. The only hope in beating some of the better teams down the road is improvement. Quite frankly, I'm just not seeing much talent anywhere on this team. Not in the RBs, the OL, the DBs - you might have to go all the way back to the late 1970s to find a comparable UT team.

Our biggest weakness is of course at QB. When you don't have a QB, you don't have a winning season.

This, Chaney was all about getting his OL the best pass blockers and disregarding run block training.

I'd be willing to bet that Butch's staff let them know early on what type of blocking they will need to do and they've been practicing it.

This isn't a "you can't teach and old dog new tricks" thing. Hell, they're 20-22 years old.
