Serious Question - Uninformed need not answer. How will our new offense ...

scheme affect our offensive line? Does Canada's system require more downfield and pulling out side of the box blocking causing more fatigue later in the game? Is this new system more likely or less likely to cause injuries at the offensive line? Hoping for one good well informed answer, but expecting a bunch of dumb comments and down votes. Have fun.

I don't think anything exhausts an OL (and DL) more than a power running game. Pushing with all your might against someone else is way harder than sprinting 5-15 yards while pulling.

Hey I'm uninformed but just wanted to post in your thread to say

At least you are honest about your ignorance, better than 99% of the people on here. I will pass on the balls, but have an up-vote.

There's a lot more movement with the OL but it's far less physically demanding in the long run. A lot of times you'll see the OL running free to block down field in Canada's offense because there's so much misdirection that takes defensive linemen out of the play. Overall, I think less contact with DL will be beneficial to our OL's health.

He utilizes a lot of shifts and motion with the OL. Which, although there is more lateral motion that will require a bit more conditioning for the OL, it's less physically taxing than a straight power run/heavy PA game.
The pro-style system requires a lot more time on blocks both in the run and passing games.
Eta: the above (combined with the fact that we're absurdly deep with really physical H-backs) is the reason the sky is not yet falling with MT's departure.
That said, if we lose another starting OL to injury, we may be all the way fricked.

Gimmick offenses were built out of necessity for schools that didn't have the beef to compete in the trenches on the OLine. Now Canada doesn't run a "gimmick" offense, but using misdirection and such can help mask some weakness there. A Miles offense needed a dominant offensive line to even be adequate.

I was a 152 lb nose guard my senior year I was also a trained as a guard . A line backer on the jr varsity team . On defensive line practice I ran the ball for the coaches against the first string defense which I started on my senior year I tell you all this so you will know I had some experience with it all. I was on every special team for all my years ,so I can tell you the big boys don't like to run , they would like to stand the opppsition up and aim him away from the play and hopefully they help by going that way , as the opposition tires its a big help ,the big boys tend to get Lazier as they get tired, being in shape is everyting and having good back up is great, Its a luxury I never had ! I'm sorry I digress ,the big boys definately don't like to run and I know nothing thing about our offense this coming year I'm sorry

Canada will have to do what every competent OC does and scheme around his talent or hear this: “I always get a good feeling in a game when (the other team) runs that first zone extra (run play) and they don’t get anything,” he said. “That’s when the nose (guard) flatheads the center, and the (defensive end) knocks the (tackle) back and the linebacker fills (the hole).
“That’s (LSU’s) bread and butter, so to be able to control that with our front seven was really good, and
those guys did a great job,” he said.
Oh, and ditto what Sampson said for being a pretentious postard.
