Last year playing at 75% with a knee brace from an MCL injury the week before, he managed 4 tackles, 3 QB hurries, a pass breakup, and forced multiple penalties from the DT position. Not bad, but not owned. I guess thats pretty good considering Ed is the leading DL in tackles per game this year at 7.3
Ed Oliver is just way overrated!!!!! All hype! He's horrible at blitzing the QB and is easily shed from half of his attempted tackles. He was know to never give up on plays as freshman but not anymore. He's just waiting for the NFL paycheck. Ig he plays he is not a concern. We just have to stop the Houston Offense. Their QB King is a real threat. Take him out!
Oliver will be one of if not the top pick in the NFL draft, but he has not really been a factor against us. However I am beginning to believe that Evan Brown May have been a big reason.
All those who believe in psycho kinesis, raise my hand

No doubt about that. If I recall correctly, Brown was a 4 year starter on the OL and that says a lot.

Great theory.......about to be put to the test. Probably correct.
How many picks for Hicks if Oliver is getting pressure in his face right up the middle?
I just have very little confidence in our O after the first half of last game. If we hadn't made some amazing catches we could have easily only scored those first 7. So until our O, especially Oline and Running Game show me more.....
Although our defense has held up pretty well, I think this is the game they fall apart. Our offense won't help but I'm more worried about their offense being awesome than our offense being terrible.
I think saying "Coug High" is derogatory. The University of Houston is a fine school. Please, our school has plenty of issues without saying unexamined put downs on others.
