Our OL is why we lost. Period.

You can blame Fitz and the defense but it wouldn't matter if we had better OL play.
Our OL not controlling the line of scrimmage, we should be able to dominate a team like BYU in the trenches.
There is no excuse for us not to be able to lineup and just overpower a team like BYU by running the ball.
Just look at how bad Auburn beat us last week. This is on Hev and Mullen for not having better players on the OL.
We are in the SEC, not the Sunbelt and until we improve the OL we will play like we belong in another conference.

We ran ok in first and second down but never could break off a big run.

What killed us was the inability to get one or two yards on third and short several times. That is inexcusable in a game like this.

If we can't win the line if scrimmage on offense we can't expect to run the ball successfully.
