Just heard a blurb on the radio from one of the talking heads and he made an interesting observation about the total starts of the OL in comparison to wins in college football. He pointed out that two of the biggest surprise teams last year, Ole Miss and Utah, had the most combined starts for their OL I think in D-1. Two teams that disappointed somewhat, Georgia and I forget the other team, had a very samll number of total starts on their OL. I know it's not rocket science but it was just an intresting stat that I had really never heard discussed before. I wonder how much that transfers down to the HS level?
He predicted a sleeper team for next season but I don't want to get into any fanboy type stuff by bringing them up.

Wow experience on the O-line matters. Who would have thunk it. Fundamental line play has always been this "Damn I'm never getting caught by that move again."

Although I agree with the assessment I don't see how it helps anybody but prognosticators and gamblers. I'm sure that Georgia would have preferred to have more OL starters back but they didn't. I'd love to have 3-5 starters come back on the OL but guys graduate.
