From Athens - Bye Week Friday

Personally, I was disappointed in both. Not going to fault one side more than the other. Players still had chances to make plays. Not going to call any names, but when you get those opportunities, and there were many, you have to make plays. The coaches have put you in that position and that is all they can do.

As far as the talent thing, I am not sure which offensive line in the country is going to have musch success against that front. They are that good. Clowney is probably the best defensive player I have seen this year. Dont care how many stars a tackle has or how highly they are thought of, he is going to make plays against anybody.

Don't get me wrong, I am not happy with the coaches either. Something has to give besides looking scared every time we play a quality team. We start slow. I am tired of seeing it. I have lost my patience with this coaching staff. Listed my scenario on the only way we keep them in a previous thread. You are going to lose just about every fight you are in when you sit back and try to feel out an opponent and to me that is what we do.

GO DAWGS

AD5....agree with your post with one exception....

imo, BAMA's OL would handle USC's defensive front......not obviously shut a Clowney or a Taylor completely down but would "win the battle" over 60 minutes.....I may be wrong but.....

One thing I do feel confident in.....our OL is average at best and this situation every year of making excuses for our OL is inexcusable.
