I don't think we have a five star qb bust. I think somehow, we have the worst offensive line we've had since everybody got hurt at the end of the 2001 season. That was also a great OU defensive team, but started four freshmen the last half of the season because of injuries. And we have another great defense.
But the OLine problems are going to get OUr skill players hurt, beat up and other kinds of bad. Also, keep in mind that the Vols didn't really prepare for Hawkins. He likely won look as good as he did last night, when has some tape for opposing DC's to look at. UTenn is good. Ouryoung OL's will improve. Those young guys in 2001, were pretty good by the end of the '02 season, and close to elite in '03 and '04. But right now, I just hope we survive.
JA has taken way too many hits. The substitution last night may have saved his body for later. We're likely going to need him.
