Just load up a side.

Put Sauls back a C, Jackson at RG, Carmon at RT and Lawrence as a blocking TE. Put Relf/J. Lewis at QB and just go student body right and pound them with those two guys andBallard/Perkins

Obviously you don't want to be constantly playing from the right hash and the short side of the field so you could either flip the lineor run enough other stuff to get to the left has (screens out the left or reverses) to open the field up.

But seems most of our OL problems come from either not being able to block the edge or missed assignments on the interior. I can remember two plays distinctly whereDayand the G's miscommunicated and picked up the same guy allowing someone to come free through the middle. Let'seliminate that for now and just go hit them in the mouth

I don't care if it's pretty - I just don't want to lose Sat.

..OM will be starting 4 true freshmen on defense (maybe more, counting redshirt freshmen).


Call me optimistic, but I think MSU's OL can block true freshmen.

I don't think it's a problem of not being able to block the guy in front of them (except for Clausell) but more a problem of figuring out which player each person shoudl pick up. We're letting way too many guys come free untouched b/c we end up double teaming one guy while the other goes untouched
