Wow. -7 yards rushing?

There's some bulletin board material for Byrd/Jimmerson & the O-Line.

Go out there and prove that wrong Mean Green!

He must think there will a lot of sacks by them (counts against rushing yards).

That makes sense. But still a slight against the O-line... pick your poison: 1. You can't run block. 2. You can't pass block.

Seems to me, either way, Steele is saying our O-line is going to be 100% ineffective against the Tigers. I just refuse to believe it. I'm not saying there will be a Lance-Dunbar-VS-MTSU-like day, but I think our O-line is good enough to help the running game gain POSITIVE yards!

We got 68 rushing yards last year against Alabama, who had one of the best college defenses of all time. We'll do better than -7 against LSU.

Lost credibility at -7 rushing.
