DeMyron
Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2005 7:43 amI don't understand how DeMyron could run with ease on TCU and we can't get a first down on Tulane. What happened to the O-line.

Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2005 9:59 amDominant college offensive lines are filled with seniors and fourth-year juniors. We have one senior (Kieschnick) and three juniors (Johnson, Guidry, Urbanus), and they rotate in with younger guys. A young guy can excel at the skill positions (see DeMyron Martin). The line needs physical maturity as much as any area on the field. They're getting better - not as fast as we'd like, but they are.
Having said that, they had a bad day yesterday - no way to get past that. But this is the same group that opened up holes against TCU - a defense that is faster but smaller than Tulane's. That was ugly yesterday, but they'll be better against Marshall.
Go Mustangs!

Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2005 5:50 pmWhen DeMyron gets his shoulders squared upfield, he is tough.
From what I saw yesterday there was not much OL push to give him that chance to get going.
