You said the 99 line sucked. So, you think this line will also suck, or even worse?
I think both the '11 and '99 OL suck compared to '97, '98, '00, '02, and '03.
"sucked" is probably too strong of a word to define '99. They struggled and had plenty of inconsistency. They were eaten alive in a number of games. Remember, our schedule in '99 wasn't murderers row as far as DLines. Okie Lite, Baylor, Mizzou, Kansas, Iowa State, and Texas Tech were god awful up front defensively. UT wasn't nearly as formidable at DE though they had really nice DTs. BTW, you were correct about Barnett being a soph in '99.
