    That's bad news. It means we'll either have to use a guy like Matt Allen out of position or turn to true freshmen for depth.

    Sounds like Barksdale's switch to OT just became more crucial and permanent, if it wasn't already.

    Man, that is really bad news.

    Offensive line for a freshman in the SEC would be scary. Lets hope it doesnt come to that.

    Scary for Flynn. Is that his blindside?

    Sorry to hear that. Sounds like a young man who has had more than his fair share of hard times. I hope the injury isn't too severe.

    i don't think so, pretty sure flynn's a righty.

    this is one of the thinnest positions on the team, you could see barksdale get some serious PT at this rate.

    Man I hope we are able to get some of these young guys PT early. With a new starting QB, two new starting WR's, and a starting tailback with less than a year experience we are going to need at least an average SEC oline. If we lose even one, heaven forbid two, of the oline starters it could be a very long season. Those NC hopes could quickly turn into Peach Bowl hopes...or worse!

    It's unfortunate that the injury bug has already hit our least deep area. Just gotta hope the others can stay healthy.
