[QUOTE="Techster, post: 769290, member: 360"] I get what you're saying, but PFF is a well respected service. They do in depth analysis of each player and each game. They didn't say our OL as a UNIT rated 55, they said no player on the OL with 100+ snaps rated better than 55. PFF was actually very specific as to why most of our guys rated so low: [I]Even when the Yellow Jackets have faced a subpar ACC pass-rush this season, the offensive line has put together a poor performance. All five linemen with at least 100 snaps this season have allowed double-digit pressures, and every single one has a PFF grade below 55.0. [/I] Key's nomination seems to be more for "year over year" improvement and how the OL is the sum of its parts rather than for any outstanding performance of individuals...though I do believe one of our OL did win OL of the a couple of times by the ACC. GT's announcement of the award points this out: [I]As offensive line coach, he was charged with overseeing the drastic transformation of Georgia Tech’s offensive front from one built to block for the Yellow Jackets’ previous option-based scheme to a pro-style, spread attack. Although still in the early stages of the transformation, Tech is averaging nearly 10 points, 50 rushing yards and 115 total yards more than it did a season ago. The Yellow Jackets rank fourth in the Atlantic Coast Conference in rushing (201.1 ypg) and fifth in fewest sacks allowed (2.2 pg) this season.[/I] Now, would I say we're the 123rd ranked OL? I don't know because I only watch our team play, but I do know our offense line is vastly improved from last year. Last year's OL is probably the worst OL unit I've seen since I started watching football, so pretty much anything was an improvement. I don't want to minimize the Broyles nomination because Key is widely regarded as one of the best OL coaches, but like most awards, there's a lot of politics involved. There are 56 nominees in the initial round. BTW...for those that worried about our rushing game after CPJ, 200+ yards a game is pretty stout. [/QUOTE]
