I have internally debated doing this since about mid-way through the third quarter yesterday.  I was a huge critic of the O-line in general and Sowell in particular after the USC game.  I have been watching them much more the last few games and I must say, that I have been impressed.  I played O-line all through my playing days and the improvements that they have made have been very good.  Sowell was a monster yesterday.  There were several times that they left him on an island and he locked up his man and did not let him go.  There were also several times where it was obvious that the scheme was for the guard to help him and he just didn't need the help.  This allowed for the guard to go get a backer.....a major advantage.  Speaking of the guards and center, more than once, a big Dexter run was the result of the guards getting to the next level and sealing the middle linebacker.  That is a very difficult block to make, and IMO the hardest.  Our line was nothing short of dominant yesterday, and if they continue to improve like they have they may actually be a *gasp* strong area by the end of the season.  Thoughts??
