Was looking at the depth chart for the game. Here's the starting OL for Lamar:

LT Colton Collins (6-3, 310 lb Sr-1L) - Brock is now the backup

LG Ian Kelso (6-0, 280 lb So-1L)

C Kyle Gillam (6-1, 270 lb Jr-2L)

RG Sean Robertson (6-1, 270 lb Sr-1L) - I think Wempa started last week

RT Stephen Babin (6-4, 280 lb Jr-2L)

 

Going with a little bit more experienced lineup this week with Collins and Robertson starting. That's a 282 lb average. UCA's OL average is 285 with two freshmen and two sophomores. How come they can win with a young and relatively small OL?

That's easy......SPREAD= High Powered Offense

Guess everyone here is OK being 3-9 for the year..

I have no problem with that and I enjoy some banter but unfortunately every time I post some it instantly gets deleted. You guys can shell it out but you cant take it.

I don't know if it is easy....but it is a damn good question!!

noticed on the other thread that their all-slc lineman is suspended so their normal offensive line is more experienced than that. is justin brock hurt or just not getting the job done?

[Guest CardAmbassador]

I think we read to much into the weight of some of these guys, there are NFL linemen the same weight as some of our lineman. The difference is strength and skill, Not every 300lb guy is built the same.

 

Is that weight carried in the gut or in muscle, that's a better indicator of how good you're going to be.

 

I think our S&C program needs to be looked at more.

Also how much truth stretching is in the weights. I know what 300# looks like and some of guys don't look like their weight.
