I saw this on a UW board ... The last rumors were that LT Trey Adams was doubtful for the Auburn game. I think IF he does play ... he won't be 100%.
Here ya go:
It all hinges on Adams being healthy. With a healthy Adams anchoring the left side with Watty the line could hold its own. Without Adams whichever guard gets moved out to LT will likely be turnstiled all night and our interior will be weaker as well due to having to replace our best guard. The run game won't get going and we will get mopey Jack Browning going 3 and out all night.
Adams-Wattenberg-Harris-Bainivalu/James-McGary is the lineup.
Adams, Sr- 4-year starter, athletic, physical specimen. Potential top-10 pick next year if back to full strength.
Watty, rSo- forced to fill in at LT for Adams for the last half of 2017 did OK despite his lack of experience and playing outside his natural guard position.
Harris, Jr- big plusses and minuses. Great in the run game because he moves so well and is aggressive as **** finishing blocks but has been a liability against physical teams in pass pro since he is so undersized. General consensus that the move from guard to C will help some in pass pro.
Bain, rFr- Hoping he takes this spot from senior JAG James just because James sucks and all the other depth sucks. A tackle after Adams and McGary leave. Recovering from back issues.
McGary, rSr- our other bookend 4 year starter and another country-strong physical specimen but not nearly as athletic or smooth as Adams. Can get beat badly at times but will be at minimum a mid-round draft pick.
With Adams out or limited the options are either to slide Watty outside like they did last year and replace him with Bain, James, or Sossebee or insert Bain at LT and keep everyone else the same. In camp they've been running with Bain at LT we will see if he is ready for Auburn in his first ncaa game.
