OL is better...

[ThinnyJ]

At least we have that going for us. Gotta put Cutter in, though...

OL is better.
Beamer and his loyalty issues means we are not likely to see Woods any time soon if at all.
If Briles OC deal came with the option make the QB call, then we might see a change to save his OC reputation.

South Carolina finished the night with 431 yards with 149 yards rushing. I think the offensive line is the biggest improvement from last season. Here is a clip of the offensive line showing some fight and the running back Jabree Coleman fighting off a defender.

Yeah he cannot read a defense. I remember 3 years ago when he was Superman and could take over a game. Where did that guy go?

That guy disappeared once opposing DCs knew to keep a spy on him and contain him. He has never been a great passer, he has always been a great athlete taking the snap and trying to make up plays with his feet.

We always seem to have once piece of the puzzle, we never have them all at the same time. We now have an OL and RB, but no QB.

We have a QB in Woods, but we won't use him. (Beamer pride, ego)
We have no WR's, with the exception being Mazio (spelling?)
We have no CB's.

OL is definitely better but they almost had to be better after most of all of the OL from last year were either let go or left the team. It's a patchwork OL.

My point is, it's year 6. To have a patchwork OL, a backup QB we won't use, no DB's / CB's, and no WR's in year 6 is beyond unacceptable. Fire Beamer today!

Reminds me of my golf game.

It does answer the question we had last year about what Sellers could do if he had a decent OL.

 

[Gamecock Jacque]

The o-line may be better but 75 was literally just a spectator on several plays for loss.

 

[Psycock]

I think the OL is much better and Fuller and co. seem very capable. Maybe we need to run even more than we have. We lost 2 WR`s for the season before it started. It appears that really hurt. Lanorris seemed to have that thing with his brother last year, which makes sense. We didn`t need to lose those 2 guys. Hopefully somebody will step up.

Absolutely love the qb, but yeahhhhhh.....IFYKY.
I hope they continue to work on what works best. Cam Newton at Auburn and Carolina Panthers had a scaled down playbook. VY at Texas did. Some of these freakish athletes (I don't say that lightly....the 3 I am talking about are all legit freakish athletes) that play QB need that. Shaq couldn't shoot free throws, but was a 7'1 monster athlete that could run, jump and had actual agility. You can't have it all. I think the OC is on the right track with what they're trying to do and I expect better results as the season goes.
Sellers has had a new OC every year. Not an excuse....that's horrible for a collegiate QB to have to endure.

The system is better. Yes the OL and RBs and run game all look good.....wonder why all of them look good all of a sudden? It's the system. So....utilizing Sellers as a 50/50 run/throw qb creates problems for defenses. I shudder every time he 3 or 5 steps and sits in the pocket for more than 2 seconds.
