TigerGumbo: "Big men mean a lot, 'Never in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few.' I think that someone said that before. Without the big strong LSU lineman nothing will workout right on a football field in a football game for anyone."
'Hot Boudin, cold coush coush Come on, Tigers, Push, push, push!'
Tinker Town: Without the big strong tackle, or guards, ends, doing their job, blocking, making room for the RB's or protecting the QB on offense. Shedding the block to make the tackle on defense, the other teams opponent football player are going to win the game. 11 football players working as a team."
GoldRing: Physics is of course a fact of life no one can deny. A good big man can do better against a smaller good man.
Blank: " Its still the same old story that no one can deny. A kiss is still a kiss." http://www.youtube.com/watch?

Coaching Football: Linemen Need to be Students of the Game
Coaching Football Tips from Holy Cross Univ. coach Tom GilmorePlaySportsTV Managing Editor
Quick, visualize an ideal offensive or defensive linemen.
Naturally, you think of a big, hulking athlete, and rightfully so.
More than ever, though, linemen have to be students of the game. Football teams are running more complex schemes, even on the youth football level, so a coach should want his linemen to be as smart as they are big. A team needs its linemen to be in the right position, using strong technique and making the right mental adjustments to be successful.
Thus, youth football coaches must make it a point to teach linemen about the mental aspects of their position.

Tinker Town: "Information about the best college football lineman are hard to find before the 2012 football season, take a look at last year media story on the top college football teams with the best college football lineman."

College Football's Title Contenders Have Offensive Line Question Marks
When determining a preseason pick for college football’s national champion, offensive lines are often the most overlooked aspect to ranking teams No. 1 through No. 124. Quarterback play and success is equally important, but developing a standout offensive line can be just as crucial.In the BCS standings released on December 4, 2011, each of the top five teams – LSU, Alabama, Oklahoma State, Stanford and Oregon – ranked in the top 25 in fewest sacks allowed. Six of the top 15 teams in Athlon’s 2011 offensive line rankings made a BCS game, while Boise State won 12 contests and finished in the top 10.
Factors such as scheme, conference and quarterback play all figure into sack totals, so it’s impossible to target one specific stat to rank offensive lines.
As the countdown to the 2012 college football season hits under 50 days, it’s time to take a look at how the national title contenders stack up on the offensive line. Some of the top contenders – USC, LSU and Alabama – are in great shape. However, potential contenders like Florida State or Georgia have big question marks to answer.
Athlon will release its national offensive line rankings later this summer, but here’s an early glance at how some of the top contenders look up front.
Offensive Lines In Great Shape
It’s just a coincidence, but each of the teams in Athlon’s projected top five is in great shape up front.

2012 Offensive Line Rankings
Monday, May 07, 2012Casual NFL observers don't do intense offensive line watching. They see the quarterback drop back from center, then hand the ball off to a back or throw it to a receiver. The O-Line is criticized if no running lane opens or the passer is sacked. It sometimes gets credit if the offense sustains a long stretch of undisrupted plays.
I watch 9-12 games each week during the regular season, and for these rankings fell back on my 2011 notes while using the great research of Football Outsiders and Pro Football Focus as guidelines. I think it's also important to understand the impact of blocking schemes, rookie expectations, and free agency additions, so I tried to touch on all of that. Please keep in mind that we are attempting to project here, not making grades based strictly on yesteryear performance.See list and read more about the best Pro football teams better lineman...http://www.

The Top 10 Strongest College Football Players
Here is the list of the top 10 strongest college football players for the 2011 NCAA Football season. Each of these athletes are absolute genetic freaks who have some of the most impressive feats of strength and workout routines around. We want to give credit to Bruce Feldman of ESPN who originally came out with this top 10 list. However, we revised this list with new players and what we deem as the correct order. Those athletes who are in better physical shape and have lower body weight get additional consideration for being stronger. Find out who makes the list...http://www.

The SEC will continue to reign supreme
August, 17, 2012
By
Edward Aschoff | ESPN.com
Unless you were living under a rock for the past decade, you obviously know that the SEC has had its share of success in the college football world.
There's
all that talent and those six straight national championships that this
league owns. All of it makes the rest of the country sick. So will the
SEC's run of dominance end any time soon? Fellow SEC blogger Chris Low
isn't so sure: Any mention of the SEC's recent dominance in
college football outside the south is usually greeted with the
predictable, "Well, the system to determine the national champion is set
up to favor the SEC."
That system, the BCS standings, is only in place for two more seasons and then it's on to a much-anticipated four-team playoff in 2014. Read more...http://espn.go.com/
