Don't forget the Offensive Line! I have been seeing some big wholes this season that I could drive my truck through. Their pass blocking is impressive also. I was worried about losing some really good ones that graduated last year, but these guys have stepped up and are doing great!
Did anybody in particular surprise you? I'm not good at judging lineman performance.

I cannot recall the last time we were weak at the QB position.
Probably sometime around the David Reeves/Daniel Jeremiah era. Since Joe Burchette, it's been All-Conference caliber QBs.
We were fairly pedestrian between AE and TL. Deandre Presley looked to be a solid replacement, but after his first year as a starter, he fizzled. Really the same with Jamal Jackson and Kam Bryant.
The only problem now is knowing we will probably lose a very talented QB because someone (or 2) will hardly ever see the field with a solid RS sophomore and RS freshman at qb1&2.
DP had virtually identical stats as Armanti for the first 6-7 games (rushing and passing) but was never the same after he got hit in the helmet... I think it was the end of the Georgia Southern game. I truly believe he would have had a similar career if that hit hadn't happened.

The Pressley,Cadet , Jackson years were not managed well. My opinion.

No, nobody in particular. We just have more depth at OL than I thought we would and their performance stood out all game long yesterday even with the younger guys getting in the game. I don't think I am good at judging the OL performance either, but I know we get QB sacks, QB hurries, and the running game sucks when they don't do their job.
Give Em Hell!!
