Anyone Else Notice The Linemen’s Interactions With Boley?

[El Gato Calvo]

They were patting him on the helmet to encourage him and showed more love to him than I’ve ever saw for Leary or BVG.

They were rallying around him

Boley certainly got better protection than BV did. Was that because Texas was tiring or subbed in a bunch? or something else?

You wonder if jealousy creeps into the huddle with Brock making bank and the lineman making a lot less. You know a least a few times these guys say to themselves yeah let’s see how much he is worth without any help from me blocking for him.

It looks that way because boley gets rid of the ball. Like levis, bvg brings much of his own punishment on himself by holding the ball or making slow decisions.

This will be an ongoing issue with NIL...it will become unmanageable.

I think a combo of the game being over tx relaxed a bit but some of it even from the defense was just staying engaged more just from a stray ray of hope standpoint.

That's a legit question for sure.

Still had SImmons in the game. He ate RT Woods lunch. Woods was beat on nearly every snap.

Yep Simmons beats a lot of folks, he's elite. Woods is just a RS freshman though so he has a lot of space to develop.

The OL has caught a lot of criticism (and rightfully so in many instances), but BVG inability to read the defense, step up in the pocket, check down when nothing is open, and just holding on to the ball too long has made the OL look worse than they probably are.

CB is much better at all those things and the OL obviously appreciates him for it.

Tell me the OL didn't look 100% better at pass blocking with CB at QB.

Boley better be ready for a lot of heat. UL defense is aggressive that creates havoc plays.

Yeah, it's a shame Boley has to make his first start vs such an ACC juggernaut D. Huge disadvantage for UK.

The UL defense isn’t great but they are aggressive. For sure not Texas quality.
