OL progress?

**CyCloned** · 08-21-2009, 08:10 AM

Does anyone have a clue about how the OL is progressing? It seems like this should be starting to turn into one of the strengths of the team, because of the number of returning players.

If Rhodes said the O beat up the D the other day, I think the Oline has to be making progress. Like everyone else, I am only speculating and don't have proof.

I hope it's coming along well, but I wonder about the timing with the no-huddle and and the fact that so many guys changed positions again.

Stewo, I agree with you that not spelling his name right is getting annoying, but at least most of our fans can pronounce it right.

Does this mean the d-line has not improved much? Are they still too small against a Big 12 oline? Our oline is somewhat big.

Probably, but hopefully not.

The pendulum swings....
The O beat the D - The D must stink
The D beat the O - The O is not progressing

Its a lose lose....just stay healthy! 13 days and they can beat up on someone else.

After watching the interview with Wally on the 19th, it sounds like the OL is beating up on the DL in the red zone. That can be taken several different ways.

Wally did state that we were able to run the ball up the middle which is a good sign for our offensive line. That is something that we havn't been able to do consistently for a little while.

And probably means there is a little bit of truth to all the ways it can be taken.

Let's go O. I want them to push little NDSU very very early....and rout 'em with the running game.

I am looking for a big lead here by the half....and really finishing them off in the 3rd......and resting the guys up for week 2.

Not to be a downer but that's something everybody has been able to do to us recently.
