Do you think the coaching staff is looking for more agile and quicker lineman who can pull and move better in space for the running attack against A&M? Might that telegraph an offensive tendency for this matchup. Or do you think it is a complete coincidence and there is nothing to it.
I do find it interesting that several more experienced and 20 lb heavier lineman have been replaced with younger and lighter players. (It is also possible that the weights listed are dated and some of the younger starters are heavier come game time.) What do you all think?
