Just wanted to give our O-Line a well deserved shout out! Pass protection was outstanding, drive-killing penalties were minimal. I think they are starting to play to their potential.
Game ball: O-Line
- Thread starter One guy for Cy
- Start date
Was impressed with many of the things I saw from the Oline. Like you said good pass protection, some pancakes in the run game, large holes for the running back(partly due to Purdy's running) and a little bit of nasty attitude to go along with it. If we can stay consistent at this level, the team has high potential to finish well this year.
The Oline has improved throughout each of the last couple of seasons and might be a little ahead of schedule this season.
I''d like to watch the game again...really liked the looks with having what looked like TEs pulling around and paving the way.

So far it seems the way the OL goes so does the offense and in turn so does the team.
Vs UNI poor game needed luck to win in triple OT
VS Iowa played well had chance to win on last possession
VS ULM played well, blow out
VS Baylor, couldn't handle 3 man rush, offense stagnant for 2.5 QT's.disappointing loss
VS TCU, best game so far, against a good DL. Blow out

Just need some consistency. The O-line received some national week accolades too-specifically Meeker and Knipfel. https://twitter.com/pff_college/status/1180871087900561408?s=2
Will have to see film, but if the te is pulling from wing area up thru hole than that is a very good thing for this offense.
We run quite a bit of arc action on the RO which I love because it just really works.
The OL was great on Saturday. More of that and less of whatever the Baylor game was please.
I agree they did play well last game, but were not good for most of the Baylor game, especially at the end when Purdy got sacked with a 3 man rush.
#12 for TCU should play for BU. Purdy's last TD hesitation was really good. It's best when viewed from behind the play.
Campbell mentioned that Newell is likely good to go for West Virginia. It will be interesting to see if they shuffle things around or just keep Newell with the second team.
Nope, he's played too well. I think Olson is the odd man out when Newell is ready to roll.
Taking a wild guess that Newell still isn’t at 100%. No reason to push it.
Damn, are he and Downing going to be a nice pair to build the line around next year!
