I know he played LT, but I feel like Ceiron Black should get some consideration for the RT spot.

quote:

One of the most decorated and durable offensive linemen in school history … Started a school-record 53 straight games, all at left tackle … The 53 straight starts broke the previous school record of 52 held by Andrew Whitworth … LSU was 40-13 in games in which he started … Started every game for LSU at left tackle since the start of the 2006 season … Became the first LSU player since Alan Faneca in 1997 to claim the Jacobs Blocking Trophy as the top offensive lineman in the SEC in 2009 … Played a total of 3,423 offensive snaps during his LSU career … … Played a school-record 1,031 snaps from scrimmage in 2007 … Joined Herman Johnson (1,030 snaps in 2007) as the only two players in school history to see action in over 1,000 plays from scrimmage in a single-season

I didn’t realize he started that many games. They say sometimes the best ability is availability.

OT - Ralph Norwood … a beast who played with a mean streak and dominated d-lineman. RIP Big Ralph, called to heaven way to soon

Other guard should be Eric Andolsek or Trai Turner

Other OT should be La'el Collins.

I go back to late 60's but some of the older-timers should weigh in. Roy Winston maybe on the list?

ETA: Tyler Lafauci, Robert Dugas, Lance Smith, Ciron Black, Ben Wilkerson, Etan Pocic need to be mentoned as well. Fully agree with the OP's top three.

Wilkerson was good. But nacho and mawae are our best two centers ever. Todd McClure was great also. All American. Long nfl career. Played with faneca at LSU.

-Le'el Collins
-Ben Wilkerson was best center I ever saw until he got hurt. I feel for him so bad. I truly think he would have been a multi year all pro nfl center.
-Tre Turner was a mauler
- joe barksdale was good but not like Collins or Wilkerson good.
