Well at least Mac is out there saying we are going to beat the heck out of Michigan.

I think the O-line will be fine, if everyone stays healthy...If we have enough major injuries at key positions, it could get ugly real quick...Does anyone know when the last time we had all five offensive lineman start every game in a single season? We probably had a pretty good year that year....

Well there's our problem right there. We've only been playing four on the line.
But seriously folks. Going all year hoping for no injuries on the line is like playing Russian roulette.

I would guess , if it happens, it would be very rare for all OL starters to start every game. Those guys are always getting nicked, poked in the eye, rolled on etc.

I think we would be better off with Jordan playing RG than Fred Johnson. He was struggling with a 250 pound walk-on D lineman in the spring game and we keep hearing the O line is having some issues with the defense in practice. I wonder if Johnson is the one really struggling.

I am really wishing that this is true, and that the coaches don't want to single out a player and say that the group is struggling to cover that.

This is our wide receiver corp:

89 Cleveland, 18 Green, 17 Toney, 10 Hammond, 85 Robinson, 44 Nordman, 38 Oelrich, 16 Swain
39 Mesenger and 43 Jarriel (of FSU propaganda film fame), 48 Merisier, 4 Powell, 9 Massey

Robinson is huge compared to everyone else in that picture. Robinson is listed at 6-4 and 205. Cleveland is listed at 6-2 and 205, but he doesn't look nearly as big as Robinson.

It's telling that Toney is included in the receivers group photo. It looks like his experiment at QB has officially ended.

It's also telling that Callaway is not in the photo.

Done carrying the ball, not done playing. How about him on special teams as a lead blocker on returns for example.
Sure, ok. Not sure if that's what he wants to do but ok. How about LB? Since we're looking around for him.

Looks like Michigan isn't to confident with the secondary



Hopefully we'll play a QB who can take advantage of them and not one who loves to throw 7 yrd passes ;)
