[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 60388, member: 944"] My big issue is with the O line play. I thought it was poor last year. While Vad did not impress any of us with how he ran the option, it's not like there were tons of holes he simply missed because of misreads or hesitations. All too often, there simply were not any good choices, so we all blame the QB, when in fact I think the problem was the OL. I am not sure why I should have any greater confidence in our O Line play this upcoming season compared to the last 2. We are going to be younger and less experienced. It would be hard for me to believe that we are simply that much better athletically up front. Hence, my fear remains that our offense will be...OK, but not great. OK to me means we can run easily and well against the teams in our first three games, but will have great trouble with the usual suspects (Miami, VPI&SU, UGa (sic). Our inability to run the ball and go on long drives in the 2nd half of games to rest our thin defense cost us last year, and I just don't see an O line that will make that happen this year. Fans always pay too much attention to the skill players/positions, and no where near enough to the trenches, but that is where games are won and lost. [/QUOTE]
