Most of the year offensive line was a strength for this team but against some teams it was horrid.
Coley clearly like to zone block and run the stretch plays. Many NFL teams have success doing this however to run this scheme Bicho always was under the impression that you needed more mobile and athletic linemen to run this scheme.
Our roster currently seems to have a lot of large brutish type lineman. It seems like when we play teams with smaller quicker type D-Linemen our O-line gets destroyed. Against Louisville that was the case they would just run right around our blockers rather than through them. Whitlock the 250 lb nose tackle for Wake gave us fits at times. but when we played Pitt we were able to handle that monster DT they had alright.
Seems to Bicho that we either need to change the scheme or recruit different type O-line players.
