Needless to say the offense of line will definitely be better under Sonny.

Can't wait for the season to start. Pony Up!

Really interested to see how Beau Morris fits in.
Thank goodness for the the experience the JUCOs and Jolly bring.

I think the line will be better, but relying on JUCOs and young guys doesn't equate to peaceful sleep for coaches... or QBs ... or fans.

More sacks, less yards per carry this year than last year-count on it. SMU had a pretty damn good Offensive Line last year until the Louisiana Tech debacle. It was one of the best Offensive Lines SMU has had in decades by any yard stick you want to use. Don't know what you guys were watching

Stallion- We had one of the best offensive lines in decades last year???
Considering we had multiple Long Term NFL guys the last time we beat TCU??

IΓÇÖm not buying. In fact I think the Jucos replace several of the guys from last season.

I'm genuinely curious, is your prediction based on the new offensive scheme? Losing Brown obviously was a loss, but with four starters back along with some transfers I'm hoping we have a better line as a whole - why do you predict worse?

Best in decades is such a ridiculous statement. That OL couldn't compare to the OL of:

Beachum, LeReibus, Tennison, Turner, Brooks

The medical term for it is 'Morris fanboy delusion syndrome'.

Speaking of JJs recruiting, DCTF calls our 2013 class the worst in the state, behind TXSTATE, UTEP. UTSA, etc. Class included Lawler, Gentry, Gaines, Minor, among those that stayed around.
