Has anyone seen the clip of Hughley's interview about LJ's Heisman Award? To quote, "the offensive line, we feel like we won that award for him". I'm sure he meant in a different sort of way but I'm thinking he won it "in spite of" the OL.

I guess all those false starts increased the yardage that LJ gained, since he had to cover extra yards but not count against him as negative yardage. Makes sense.
He's a good kid.
May not be what some want as a Center, but will do ok in life.
If BOBBY PETRINO had recruited anybody better wouldn't they be playing?
You gotta take the bad with the good. He has the final say on recruits and coaches.
The OL is his baby too.
It not all on Klenakis.

He did help Lamar against Houston by hollering "look out Lamar" about 20 times.
All kidding aside, there were games when the offensive line played well, just not against Virginia, Houston, Wake Forest and part of the Clemson game. Much better than last year but they need to make an even bigger leap next season.
Not sure who Hughley's replacement will be but I remember when BP got mad at him at NC State and replaced him for one series with TC Klusman and it was ugly. Defensive tackles went in untouched to the QB.

accprding to zipp, bpghost and many on this site, our offensive line is amazing and needs no changes.
It's amazing alright.................. Amazing that those guys are starters on a top 20 team.
Actually, according to 'zipp', we have a lotta people in this space talking about what needs to be done who don't know WTH they're talking about.
Now, back to the thread...
As I said, the offensive line played really well most of the year and was drastically better than last year. That's not totally surprising considering how young we were last year outside of Hughley.
If you want to make the leap from 9-3 to The CFP, it's going to happen if the guys in the trenches can take another step forward and be more consistent. Unless you just count on Clemson and FSU having off years next season. Doubtful.
Electrifying, best in the nation, Heisman Trophy winning QB? Check, Talented skill players? Check, Solid defense with lots of talent returning? Check, Top notch play caller? Check.
What's missing?
well I know Jack, and I know that Lamar will have an even better year with a college level offensive line.
I'm not too sure beas understood the post he liked...
"As I said, the offensive line played really well most of the year and was drastically better than last year..."
I admit. I laughed out loud! That loss as painful and disappointing as it was has melted away (and the UofK loss too for that matter) since Lamar brought home the Heisman Trophy and put the UofL football program squarely on a course towards the playoffs next year. We WILL be there if the O-line improves and Lamar can take better care of the football.
Well we will have 3 possibly 4 first time starters so we shall see. Hmmmm
Fail.
I've consistently said that major improvements need to be made with our OL but I will say that I think that they have about 100% better chance of becoming a good unit, than you do of ever being able to tell the difference between your ass and a hole in the ground.
Lamar said A+ in our biggest win. And that guy's one tough grader.
Lamar or beas, beas or Lamar? Who has more credibility??

i see that you are trying to make this different than what you said. I am over it. you say one thing then change the entire basis of your argument to fit your narritive when you were proven dead wrong.Lamar said A+ in our biggest win. And that guy's one tough grader.
