Gabe, I respectfully disagree with your take on the offensive line. Obviously, any unit is a question mark until we actually see how they play (and whether they stay healthy). But you can't disregard game experience, or assume kids won't improve. Take Taylor Chapell, for example. Sure, he struggled at times, but he was also out there when the O-line was kicking ass at the end of the A&M and Arkansas games. And he played the Arkansas game with a hyperextended elbow. You can't run the ball as well as we did last year without a right tackle who can block. This season, he would've been better because of his experience. The fact that the coaches have moved him to left guard suggests that they see Crawford as a superior player. If so, then we're going to be improved at that position. We should also be improved at left guard because of experience at that position. I'm confident that McGovern will be every bit as good as Morse at left tackle. Boehm should be better, too, and it should not take this unit as long to gel as last year's, barring injury. We'll see soon enough, but I predict that the O-line will be outstanding.
