Hey blacklisted & guitar, how'd the OL grade?****
- Thread starter KurtRambis4

Watching freshman Stewart Reese plow All-American Arden Key into the ground was very satisfying. Clearly practicing against Chauncey Rivers every day is helping him get better quickly.
Instead of being a liability, this OLine is a strength of this team. We just ran for nearly 300 yards against LSU.
Seems I remember predictions of LSU's DL "prison raping" our OL.
I wonder if they will own up to being wrong and happy that they were.
I'm sure they will just down talk LSU instead.

LSU lost 3 DL during the game to injuries and penalty.... Hevesy still don't need to be on the recruiting trail,.....
I never predicted LSU or any other DL would, "prison rape our o-line". I never even suggested our o-line would not be good going forward. I simply said they looked pretty bad in the first game vs an over-matched, less talented DL from an FCS school, that it was, "cause for concern", and that they would have to play much better going forward when we got to the SEC part of our schedule.
I was absolutely correct...100%. Our o-line did look pretty bad in week 1. I never criticized week 2 vs LT because they got a little better in week two, and now in week three they clearly continued their improvement and had a great game.
I am always happy when our team does well. Unlike a few others on here who love attacking fellow Bulldogs more than they love to celebrate good things about our team, I prefer to ignore those morons who are quite clearly just not smart enough to grasp that it is entirely possible for an o-line to be bad one week, then quite good two weeks later in another game.
FWIW, I gave our o-line a C- in the first game. I believe one of the aforementioned morons gave them a C+, so their ongoing obsessive diatribe is apparently over the diff between a C+ & a C-. Really stupid.
BTW, with regard to the 2nd game vs LT, I was one of the 4 that predicted within 2 points of the actual outcome, having predicted a 38-point margin. That sound like someone who was all doom-and-gloom, or someone who felt like our staff would realize we had a lot of work to do on the o-line and would work on it?
Grade A for yesterday, no doubt. Does not change the past, no matter how much the mentally-challenged among us want to believe it.

The thing they still fail to understand is that playcalling makes the difference. And they will never understand that.
Aeris did a much better job last night of taking the holes that were created. Showed much better vision than week one.
For sure
We ran 3-4 counters (that I remember) last night, with Rankin pulling, and had great success on each.

Had a lot to do with running backs and play calling and little to do with better play....a little better
Never attributed the phrase to you specifically there, but someone posted it. I'm not going to go looking for it either.
I don't even remember any posts by you specifically. Sorry dude if I offended you.
But there were several who said we would see just how terrible our O line was when LSU 17ed us up and down the field.
If you are over it, I'm over it. Our OL did an excellent job and that is all that really matters going forward.
Peace out.
285 yards rushing at 5.9 per rush
1 Sack
465 yds total offense
25 first downs
7 of 13 3rd down conversions
5 of 6 in the Red Zone
Almost 12 minutes more in Time of Possession
But... we were just a little better.
Man, then I can't wait to see what we can do to Georgia next weekend if we play just a little bit better than that.

No worries. If I thought you were one of the aforementioned morons, I would not have replied to your post..I'd just ignore you like I do them. I was never offended at all.
As far as the morons go, I'm not personally hurt by them in particular. I'd have to respect their opinions at least a little bit to be hurt or offended. I just don't particularly care for any of this, "eating our own" BS that those guys routinely start.
I admit, I am a little embarrassed for our school, knowing that fans from other schools can see the stuff they post and think our fan base is that stupid. But then I realize every school has posters & fans like that. Some just have a lot more. (Looking at you, U of Northern Miss).
Personally, I'd rather have a healthy debate or discussion like this one, where we can have a difference of opinion without being the first to start with personal insults, etc.

I'm not a big hevesey fan.
That said, his unit controlled that line of scrimmage last night in the run game, and the pass game. Credit where it is due. Hardly ever heard Arden key's name, and that's an accomplishment. Proud of those boys for getting busy. They did serious work.
That defense played angry, stuffed that run except one series. I Love whipping corndog ***.
I said there is no way we'd beat UGA at Georgia. Now I don't think there is any reason we can't. I'll eat the hell outta my crow....with a smile on my face.

Agreed.
Aeris did a great job last night of being patient and waiting for our linemen to open the running lanes for him. Also, he did a great job of picking the right hole and running through it.
Tip of the cap to Aeris. Great game. Keep it up.
Take that "eating
their own" ******** back to genes page.
You're the clown that initiated the ****-talking anyway.
If you're so worried about what fans see then why are you badmouthing the OL so much?
Do you believe this BS that comes out of your mouth?

You started bashing the OL. Doesn't get anymore "eating your own" than that.
And you were wrong too
And you were wrong too
What was their excuse for getting it rammed down their throat before any of that happened?
No, you are, and you're a bumbling idiot over it. Anyone with a lick of common sense and a smidge of knowledge would agree that our OL struggled in the first game. It is possible that they played poorly as a collective in game 1 and played well last night. I don't understand why after a solid game all around, while everyone is stoked about a win, jackasses have to come back and attack those who've been critical of oline play. It has been a legitimate concern. It didn't delight any of us to see missed blocks, crappy snaps, poor execution and general lack of effort at times in game 1. It delighted everyone, I'm sure, to watch them manhandle LSU's defensive front. Jesus Christ, let's enjoy the win.
I didn't think
it was bad in G1.
Thats what started this all. I posted that I didn't understand where all of the hate for the OL was coming from. I understood the concern (coming into the season), but not the hate, then.
Two different things.

I for one thought Reese would be brutalized. The OL looked flawless last night and I am really optimistic.
Thank you for helping separate the chaff from the wheat. I do appreciate the personally insulting, small-minded, intolerant ones making it obvious early on, so I can add you more quickly to the, "pay no attention" club.
FWIW, you read it entirely wrong. I'm not arrogant, and don't generally consider myself superior to others. I do, however, take exception to those who prove themselves to be ******** just for the sake of being ********. So, in those cases, I do consider myself superior...but that's not saying much. Any decent human being with an average IQ would be so.

Exactly this. Poor performance in game 1. Better performance in game 2. Great performance in game 3. It is really that simple, yet several on here struggle with the concept so much they resort to personal insults, etc.
Best just to put them on ignore, as they are highly unlikely to post anything of value going forward. In my experience, those who so quickly resort to unprovoked insults are generally fairly ignorant.
