DESCRIPTION
Ole Miss put up 420 total yards against Charlotte and Pete Golding still named something the offense could not do. Asked about the offensive line, he said you have to be able to line up, put your hand in the dirt when they know you are going to run it, and run the football — and then: "I don't know that we did that."
Look at what surrounded that answer. Kewan Lacy carried about 13 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns and sat down — his 11th straight game with a rushing touchdown. The line did it without Tommy Kinsler, with Connor Howes starting at right tackle. And in the third quarter, when everybody in the building knew what was coming, Ole Miss rushed for minus one yard. That is the exact situation Golding described, and the exact situation LSU will create on Saturday night.
The honest counterweight: Golding also said he thought the line did well given who was missing, and he had not watched the tape when he said either thing. He was grading a feeling — and the feeling was still negative.
