for real though we had the best dline in the country last year and our opponents barely had any holding calls.

Is gonna be a nasty bunch of boys by the time camp is over!
That's what I took away from the highlight video. Our OL looks meaner than I've seen in a long time!!

Completely different era in Tiger football now versus 2008.
We have MUCH better coaches, players, not to mention our recruiting is now elite every year. Depth is also much better across the board.
There may be a small learning curve on the OL - but the talent is there, as is the coaching, and the winning attitude Dabo and company have instilled in our program.

It means our DL is better at their jobs than our OL right now.

The DL is (usually) always better than the OL at this time of year, i.e.: fall practice. It's the nature of the game that focuses simply on raw aggression (DL) rather than trying to "make something happen" (OL). Interestingly enough, the OL is not generally considered as having "skill positions", but it's the OL, in the final analysis, that males or breaks a team. However, OUR OL this year, as has been said, is going up against one of the stronger DLs in the nation during practice (oh yeah, all those guys the pundits say we lost...) and will be more than prepared for anything our competition has to offer. In both my opinion and experience, Athleticism, Coaching and DESIRE, which our OL is overly blessed with, overcomes any expectation and presumption for success. Just give DW enough time to throw the ball, or hand it off and make a decent block. We'll be okay.
Go Tigers!

Make practice harder than the game

I doubt our OL will see many DL's as good as what they're facing on a daily basis. #Sunshine
