Some perspective...

Univ of Washington 2009 OL

Skyler Fancher 6'5 305
Daniel Kanczugowski 6'4 327
Ben Ossasi 6'6 332
Morgan Rosborough 6'6 382
Nick Scott 6'4 337
Scott Shugert 6'5 305
Terrence Thomas 6'8 305
Ryan Toler 6'5 293 center

Most Div 1 schools have mammoth OL. Ours are huge and athletic. Wisconsin's are mainly just huge.

Anyone who thinks that a good o lineman is just big and athletic doesn't know what they're talking about. And I'm not conceding our O-lineman aren't athletic, because they are.

What makes you say that exactly?

A lot of UW's schemes require the guards to pull and you absolutely need to be athletic and quick to do that well. And they do it well.

So how do they manage to put so many of them in the NFL? I'm a little stunned at how flippant people are about the Badgers' actual strengths primarily b/c they're Big 10.

A few year ago, I wouldn't have cared about this line. This year, it worries me.
