Alabama's Offensive line is HUGE, but I went over their forums after they lost to Texas and they were complaining about how slow the offensive line is. I think we have the same issue with our offensive line which might be the reason our pass blocking sucks. But size-wise, there is a little over a 100 Ib difference in our starting O-line and D-line lineups. So they aren't that much bigger.....now when we match up our D-line to their offensive line there is a 373 Ib difference. We definitely need to use speed and skills against this group. Good thing is that our offensive line is bigger than their defensive line....but giving up 6 sacks to an FCS school makes me scared to see what Ala can do. 

Note: I added Jacquez Williams as Cheney's backup. I'm sure Bernard Gooden can ball, but I hope they don't put a 260 Ib man at DT against Alabama. And WTF man? Why is Alabama's team so big?! lol

Go Bulls!!!!:04-rock:

Yes they have a huge O line but the big guys look slow on passing downs like said......hopefully our  undersized DL can cause them issues on passing downs. 

Thats way bigger than the Bucs O line for comparison.

For sure.  Wonder what they looked like coming out of high school.  One of the 360 lb'ers is a FR!

No doubt they get some of the highest rated biggest boys before they come there. It isn't an apples to apples comparison as I know you are aware. That big boy was a 99 rated 5 star and number one OT and IA in the national. Goach does have better sized offensive linemen this year and hopefully we can keep getting bigger and highly rated linemen. I just don't think any of the our true freshmen are anywhere near game ready on the offensive line.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
