The linebackers against UNC

[DMoney]

Tomorrow will be the first time we really get a good look at our top group of backers. Kirby is back and acclimated, DP is healthy and Eddie Johnson is entrenched.

While the DL remains critical, I'm very curious to see how this group perform against Bernard. With a strong, balanced back like him, tackling is critical.

I am pretty excited to see 2 Atlanta freshman getting considerable playing time.

 

[TheSwagger1]

But will we see those 3 on the field at the same time?

It would make too much sense, so im going with no.

 

[CaneDaddy]

As long as they are making plays in the run game and not our secondary, then I am happy. DL needs to keep the OL from making it to the second level so these guys can make plays.

 

[DeadPoets]

Is Curtis Porter playing?

Good luck with that.

Might as well be asking if Vince Wilfork is playing.

 

[pcitycane]

porter will be back for FSU to play 3 snaps before he breaks both of his legs in a freak accident.

 

[CaneAlmighty]

Is Olsen Pierre back?

We was sorely missed vs ND.

If he's back then this may be the healthiest the defense has been all year which should bode well for tomorrow.

 

[AllbouttheU]

Yes Pierre is back.

 

[moshated305]

I don't think it will matter much if our DTs are sitting in their laps every play. Until our DTs can at least hold their ground, it doesn't matter who we have at LB.

 

[CaneSB]

This is by far the best OL we will face this year. If we let their guards get on our LB, it will be a LONG day

 

[canecountry3]

4+ sacks tomorrow.

Their O-line is better than ND and K State? I doubt that's the case, but if it is we might as well not even show up.

 

[Pixelated bukake]

One thing that was obvious about our D vs. ND was not only the line getting pushed back but O linemen easily getting to the second level. Until we get stronger up front, it will be very difficult to see what this LB core is capable of.

Yes, there is OL is better

Eddie Johnson may be the odd man out.

G Paul has seemed to lock down his spot and is becoming our most active LB.

Perryman is playing well also

That leaves the battle between EJ or Kirby
