wouldn't say vea had a bad game in the peach bowl, wouldn't say he dominated either. Had some good plays, still pretty raw overall.
of course the oline (strausser at the time) was the major major issue. Retrospectively, Huff overall is probably an upgrade from strausser.
2016 was a good OL. Depth was dicey and Harris wasn’t ready but it was a very good OL. We were fucking destroying teams up front with Dissly and Sample. Coleman improved a lot but he average like 7.5 ypc and had 800 yards. He’s not doing that unless the OL was dominating, which they did in almost every game.
Clemson’s RB averaged 2.6 ypc in the title game. Nobody was gonna run on that Bama team. The front 7 was loaded. Jonathan Allen, Payne, Tomlinson, D’Shawn Hand, Rueben Foster, the guy that had the pick 6 against us.
Browning lost us that game. Give us Watson or Mariota, or whoever and that OL was good enough to win. It was easily our best OL since 2001.
the oline wasn't good with harris at right guard. once shane brostic went down the season was over. if brostic plays against bama it's a close game
