ou receivers

I was at the torchlight parade today and noticed Sweed and Brandon Foster standing side by side, the top of Foster's head barely reached Sweed's chin! How the hell can we expect him to cover Malcolm Kelly? Unless Foster develops a 50 inch vertical by Saturday were gonna have serious problems, as if we didn't have enough. The defensive line will have to dominate for us to have any real chance.

if you really think this problem is unique to us..
you need to take a look at OU's secondary.  Their free safety is the only guy over 6-0.  So most likely their DBs are in the same boat vs Sweed as our guys will be vs Kelly.  CBs are never really that tall, they not supposed to be WRs.  They have to be fast enough to react to routes and the QBs. If you put a guy back there at CB who is a prototypical WR, he's going to get burned.
