We can debate which quarterback should start, gripe about the distribution of carries among the running backs, and ask why certain receivers aren’t getting the ball more, but the issues on offense really start up front on the offensive line.
As I sat there re-watching the Texas Longhorns win over the Iowa St. Cyclones over the weekend, the loss of junior left tackle Connor Williams was evident. As a result, the offense struggled to score points while the Iowa State defense game-planned directly around the weaknesses across the Texas offensive line.
The challenge for the coaching staff the rest of the season will be to figure out how to score points while managing the issues it has with its offensive line.
