Wow, if you would have told me this lineup would start and render zero sacks against Houston, I would have laughed you out of the house.

Great job, guys!!!

Not to knock out guys but how did our swiss-cheese o-line keep 5-star, Ed Oliver off Benji? I am impressed and glad that they may have found their mojo.

Agreed on the OL. I was amazed at their play. Virtually everyone looked good on both sides of the ball. But the OL was one of the big surprises of the night.

I too couldn't believe how well the O-line played. Was so happy for them since they took a lot of flack from the Temple game.

As a side note, RBs need to continue working on ball security.

its even more impressive the second time I watched it-considering we have a pocket QB UH didn't even get many hurries-just 2 officially. The pocket was solid

On the run blocking front, there was a great play where the fullback blew up their right OLB. 7-11 now sells pancakes.

Not really O Line but they had their own blocking duty that play and executed.

Two factors: Wilds is not ready. LIne was much better with Saenna at Tackle in Tulsa game, and even better obviously with Natour back. Second, we underestimated what McCarty brings to the team. There might be a reason he started as a true freshman.
