I dont look at it as good or bad. Can the position group do their job at a level that will contribute to winning a championship? Thats gotta be the standard. OL last year did not meet that standard. 

i don’t agree with this. replace quinn with dart or cam ward and we win the title. we made it to the sec title and the playoffs last year with our o line play. they did more than enough to get us there. if we don’t have one of the most ineffectual and self sabotaging qbs in all of P5 football last year then we win the title. same with the year before. in fact especially the year before.

this is the unit we are talking about as being “bad” and “not good”. lunacy. it wasn’t our greatest ever o line, but it was a very good unit that was superior to both its runners and the passer it blocked for.

ww returned a bunch of starters from a playoff team and we featured the best lineman in all of college football, a guy who swept the awards circuit, then was a top 10 pick, and is now kicking ass as a rookie on a very bad team in the nfl. it’s mind blowing that this many people are this eager to criticize last year’s o line as if they were an issue.

I like ya brother but this "replace quinn with dart" is crap.  Dart crapped the bed when pressured, too.

dart was (is) leagues ahead of QE as a qb, and he did not have the supporting cast that QE had. every game we lost the past two years was a close loss featuring subpar qb play. you put Dart at qb for us last year and we walk to the title.

There was a great discussion on 3rd and Longhorn this week during their Bye Week podcast, about how Texas fans believe "the standard" for Texas football is four perfect quarters of total domination week in and week out.  That's just not realistic in the current era of SEC football and Division 1 football in general with NIL and the transfer portal.  To say that we didn't have a good offensive line last year is just nuts.

Why the fuck would you visit Camden?

We were driving through it, stopped, got some beers, and then headed to Cape May. It wasn't a decision that we were like 'You know what? We should stop in Camden. I've heard real nice things about it.' Lovely city. Beautiful atmosphere.

Sounds like you've only been to Newark and Trenton.

I would only go to Newark if I could smoke weed with Redman. Other than that, I'm gonna have to pass on that. I don't want my death and the last thing I city is a liquor store on a corner in Newark.

I'm sorry. I hate being a grammar Nazi when I also misspell and get called out, but it has to be done to equal out the assholery here.

Eh, I don't know about "greatest ever," but we weren't as bad as we remember it being. We got absolutely obliterated by Georgia the firdt time due to lack of preparedness, but the second time we sent Beck to the ICU, and had no idea Stockton could run since we didn't have any tape on him, and still went to OT. 

In the CFP against fOSU, Cam Williams came back too early from his knee sprain against ASU due to both pressure because it was the semifinal, but also because we had no one behind him except Baker, who would have gotten destroyed (same with Chatman).

How about 4 quarters of dominant football against…UTEP and San Jose St?

This year is a lot like 2018. Every game showed amazing potential, then a struggle.

Think the current version of this team crushes those teams appropriately
