The offensive line is the reason all the talk about this being a one year window for Kirby and the Dawgs is pure hogwash! They are going to be good this year even with all the youth. The next two years they are going to be great!
We all hear about the voluntary summer drills where QB and receivers are building chemistry and getting better. Is there an equivalent for the linemen? Maybe they are part of those drills, too, even though we generally just hear about the other guys. Or do the linemen have to wait until fall camp to really be able to build that chemistry?
I expect UGA to start the more experienced OL in game 1 (Clemson). HOWEVER, I expect Mims, Jones, Ratledge and Van Pran to be getting a lot of playing time by the bye week. There is too much depth and talent on this OL to play just 5 guys.
I believe if UGA can come together as a complete unit an the QB play has to be flawless all year long, the sky is the limit for our Dawgs. We have the talent to blow everyone out this year an cruise to the Playoffs.
