In the recent months a blog post was made on ESPN about how FSU’s offensive line was going to be the worst in the ACC. This very blog post gave FSU’s OL coach Rich Trickett a great idea; print out a copy of that blog and make every Offensive linemen carry it in their wallets for the entire season. Well so far the results have been positive. The Offensive line has been able to hold up in practice, well enough for our RB to be very productive. "Everybody was [ticked]," A.J. Ganguzza said, "But we're going to use it as motivation and prove people wrong.'' This seems to be the theme for the FSU OL men this year.
One thing is for sure, this will be the youngest Offensive line FSU has possibly ever fielded. But let’s get one thing straight; it is not the least experienced line in the ACC . Say what? You heard me it is not the least experienced line in the ACC. If you consider experience to be combined starts, FSU has second to least experienced line in the ACC. Clemson being the least experience line in the ACC. And Wake coming right after us. So is this a good thing being wedged in between Clemson and Wake? After all Wake Forest was only able to pull up 3.5 ypc against Baylor, a team that allowed over 180 yards per game on the ground to their opposition. And do I really need to remind you of how Clemson played this weekend?
Time will tell how our OL will perform but one thing is for sure they are working hard and they are not giving up. They have something to prove and they want to prove it. Coach Trickett is certainly not giving up on these guys. He has even stops throwing his cap at them. That has to merit something right?
