What about our Offensive Line this year?

How do we do against the Top 25?

Hmm...I still can't get that SunBowl game out of my mind. 

That was a game that was lost in the trenches...then it became a blow-out.

GO BULLS!!!

Its a work in progess, we are getting better talent but its young now.

If the line stays healthy they should be good but if they start to drop like flys we could be in trouble.

a work in progess is never good

Depends I guess on how you look at it, the line is better than it was 3 years ago but 3 years from now it should be even better.  Rome wasn't built in one day

Last year I thought our offensive line was pretty bad. I am constantly thinking that is the reason they love to use BBQ as a blocker. I am by no means an expert on football but I am curious what everyone else's thoughts are on our O-line compared to other O-Lines in the top 25. How do we compare?

The line wasn't "bad" last year... the OL was depleted by injuries.  Huners, Capogna, Walker, Dile, etc all missed some games because of injuries... heck, before Walter Walker went down against Rutgers, they had like 1 sack; after he was hurt, they picked up six more.

Like others have said, if the guys avoid injuries, this will be a very good OL.  If we get three or four guys hurt, we could have some rough patches... and need to play a little more two TE sets with a good blocking back.

Thank you.  The O-line was pretty good last year.  Unfortunately we had NO depth.

Getting Huners back healthy will also help - He can play Guard or Tackle.

And hopefully Tolley can be back this season.

Regarding a "work in progress" ... it's taking longer than anyone wants, but we ARE getting there. Especially at Tackle.

Go BULLS !!!

The fact we lack OL depth is the main reason we lost the Sun Bowl by the margin we did. 

This, and special teams, should be the two hottest topics for our coaching staff.
