Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 331337, member: 405"] To me, it all comes down to the offensive line. If they can be just AVERAGE, we will be in a bowl game. They have been nearly the worst in college football for going on 10 years. I'm talking about being average - able to run for 3-4 yards per carry, able to pick up 3rd and short, able to pass block and give the QB time for routes to develop downfield. It all comes down to that. If we have adequate O-line play, the defense doesn't have to pitch a shutout every time, and they won't be on the field for 35-40 minutes a game. Injuries come when players are fatigued. It all comes down to the line - and I'm looking at you, Mackey. [/QUOTE]
