That O-line really is a huge question mark. Defense improved significantly from '08 to '09, but I think they'll have to make another big jump this season to get us bowl eligible. I'm stickin' to my 5 win prediction. Lets Get It On!!! 6 wins minimum, maybe 7, and 8 is not impossble. |

I am sitting here in Arkansas for the last 9 days.
Every day the Little Rock paper has a column on the Hawgs. Every single day.

Don't forget.. a better offense can really help out a defense. Score a lot of points, the D can gamble. Long drives, the defense gets rest. Consistent 1st downs.. the other team just plain has the ball less. They're more out of synch, your defense is better able to disrupt. Oh and did I mention field position. All ways a good offense can make your D look good.

The Little Rock paper obviously does that by taking away from coverage of their local NFL franchise and first-place by seven games over you-know-who major league baseball team.

our offense can be VERY lethal if our oline shows up and gives lindley the time he needs. As well as opening holes for hillman and the backs.
Its crazy to say it or think it, but our entire season rests in the hands of our offensive line. they will be better than last year, but will they still be good enough?
if our oline holds their ground. we will be 6-6 at the worst.

I hope we play as good as we look.
But looks can be deceiving.

"Not so fast" we had 0 run game last year on a new scheme and at times looked good. Expect this to be a breakout year in spite of the bad recruiting on the Oline. |

"Win and they will write." There is a step inbetween win and they will want to read, and then they will write. Supply and demand. |

All ways a good offense can make your D look good. I agree with everything you've written, but has been said it's all predicated on improved oline play, especially the part about long drives, that cannot be accomplished without running the ball. If we can't run the ball effectively, the best we could hope for is a big play offense and that would be a detriment to our D. |
