I have been thinking as I watch the Bama O-line manhandle a very good ND D-line. Alabama's front five are probably better than half of the NFL's O-lines. This sounds crazy but think about it for a second. Jones,Fluker, Warmack are all first or early second rounders this year- Kouandjio will be a top 10 pick when he comes out and Steen will be a 3-5 rounder or better when he comes out. This line has to be one of the best O-lines in NCAA history.







It's arguable that they were even the best in their conference. That Texas A&M O-Line was awfully good this year.
Fair arguement. A/M O-line out played Bama's O-line in the one loss they had but i'd take Bama's line.
I remember before the Bama game at some point Kiper said on his Saturday morning radio show that he thought A&M will be really good and could compete in the SEC because it was his opinion they had the best O-Line in college football. At times Bama's has been underwhelming. I agree with you though, it's loaded.
That is why I absolutely don't believe Manziel will win a Heisman next year, he's losing his center and both tackles. Well, it looks like he'll lose all 3. The center is a senior, one of the tackles is projected to be a high first round pick, and the other is projected to be a possible late first round pick. Bama loses 3 from their line too, so it's not likely McCaron gets the Heisman Musberger just predicted either.
Give Bollman a week with either one of those lines and let the false starts begin.
Next time someone asks you what's a punishment more than death, you look them dead in the eye and say: Your football team has the Walrus as not only their OL coach, but also their OC
Just goes to show how important BOTH sides of the line really are. With Warriner leading the way, I'm much more confident OSU can develop a dominating O-line to go with their potentially devastating D-line. That's where championship teams are built, and it looks to me like OSU is on its way with talent and a competent leader finally there.
