coachacola Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 With a starting offensive line that averages 303 pounds, Lamar should have plenty chances to do that against an NAIA school that used six defensive linemen who averaged 235 pounds in a loss last week.

Guest CardAmbassador Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Lamar's game notes say the average starter on the OL for Texas College is 270, the Beaumont enterprise says its 230, I'm inclined to believe the game notes because 230 is ridiculously small for a O line, that's smaller than most High Schools.

If we see 350 yds on the ground that will mean a couple of things. A. probably a school record B. we didn't throw the ball much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
