UVA offensive line

They are grown men. I’m not worried about our line given the talent and coaching but this is a good argument for playing grown men.


That's where the expanded eligibility rules have truly helped teams. If you can get an older OL together, even if they aren't as talented as some of the DL they will face, there's something to be said for grown men playing youngsters.
 
They could very well end up on the other side in the ACCCG. NCST doesn't look very good, but UVA looks like they are gonna be a tough opponent for teams with the way they can run that read option, Oline blocking, QB run, etc.

There's a reason why programs like Iowa, Wisconsin and Notre Dame don't start freshman. And they've produced a ****load of very good offensive line talent, regardless of the recruiting ranking.

Every new guy coming in sits a year, purely focusing on weights, footwork and watching film. After that, they're good to go. That level of slow experience and buildup towards a starting role matters a lot as well.
