The unity and spirit behind Tennessee’s “O-Line Pride” still exists, but the front five’s elder statesmen said the war cry is a little bit different and a lot more inclusive.

Gotta love Dallas Thomas not real happy with the move to guard but knows it's about the team and winning and putting the guy on the other side of the line on his ARSE. Sounds like coach Pittman has instilled some NASTY and down right MEANESS in the O-Line.I think the whole team is gonna be MEANER and NASTYER than what weve seen in 10 years.

Our o-line has a bunch of highly rated guys who were embarrassed last year. I think that is a really good thing.
When success doesn't come easily, people either break or come back stronger. I think the character of guys like Thomas plus the competition for spots will make sure our line comes back stronger this year.

Wes,
As bad as they were with the run, they seemed much better on pass plays. Are there stats to show that?
With basically the same line, except for left tackle, why all the optimism?
