[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 521449, member: 265"] Hmmmmmm. How about a little data? That always seems to help. Average weight for starting OLs: Minnesota - 327 (308 w/o Faalele) / Georgia Tech - 294 Average weight for starting DLs: Minnesota - 275 / Georgia Tech - 278 Our OL is smaller because we favored speed and flexibility over sheer weight. But the overall difference is insignificant and their average is pumped up by a 400 lb OT, something you don't see every day. Our DL is actually slightly heavier then UM's and, as can be seen, we outweighed their DL by 19 pounds on the average. These kind of OL / DL discrepancies are not at all unusual. It is true that now that we are about to change O systems our OLs will have to pork up a bit, but that's about all that will be required. We've gone over this before. The discrepancies between our lines and those of our opponents are about the same as you find throughout college football. We could use more talent, of course; who couldn't? [/QUOTE]
