Kwat, Choate, and Bo Davis are a formidable DL staff. Combined with them being fucking Texas and getting to hand pick whoever they want at DL, and it's no surprise that that was by far their best unit.
Hats off to Huff and the boys for taking care of business. Not just Pac-12 tuff, but genuinely one of the best OL in all of college football. Something we haven't been able to say since the 90s.
wish we had this OL in 2016. Would have done some real damage.
If you put this OL and Penix with that 16 defense we might actually beat Bama.
Our defense had freshman Hurts in real trouble
The pick 6 and the big running back saved them against an overmatched Husky offense
However the reason Penix had his worst game was because he got the most pressure. Sacks aren't the only thing that matters other than beating Oregon. Pressure leads to picks and incompletions
All that being said for the first time in years the UW O line didn't bitch out completely facing a 4 and 5 star south to southwest D line. They fought and battled and in the 2nd half they ran it down their throats.
Good stuff and deserving of props
My How did the O Line get good power ranking
DeBoer Grubb - O line coach and OC who moved Penix around to avoid sacks Penix - lived in the film room Huff - someone needed to do the beer run
I kid
Allegedly
Chinned for this. The reason Penix doesn't get sacked more often is most likely his ability to get rid of the ball quickly. He looked like crap in the first half and the pressure, up the middle, was a big reason why.
I think a lot of the blitz pickups and audible run calls are a result of fooling the defense into showing their hand early, Penix and Luciano making adjustments and of course the quick release and pocket manipulation of Penix. Having that few TFL takes village. Amazing.

Great Stat and the difference was obvious... however 6 of the top 16 were in the Pac so that tells you something about the bottom half of the league this year as well, and the defense in the league in general as far as getting pressure on the QB much less sacks. That said, this line did great, the offense was designed to make big plays while providing Penix with safety valves that still moved the ball, and Penix made plays. That's a real no shit Shirlock success.
