ATL: Above the Line Watch: 2020

[JJacket]

10 OL ATL. Every one over 300 lbs.
4 of 5 DT’s over 300 lbs.

Coach Lew is earning his keep.

I remember sitting in the north stands as a teen being amazed that Refrigerator Perry could play football at 300 lbs.

What happened to highlighting the starters from the prior week's game? That was a thing last year.

 

[GoGATech]

ATL chart is basically useless. There are people not on it that will play and there are likely people on it that will not because of injury. IIWII.

Only 9 seniors on the ATL (not counting special teams).

The quickness and footwork these guys maintain at 300 lbs is incredible.

What is happening with Bruce Jordan Swilling? Is he recovered from last year's injury?

We have better running backs

 

[RussianOffense]

Differences:
- Antonneous Clayton (DE)
+ Emmanuel Johnson (DE)
- TK Chimedza (DT)
+ D'Quon Douse (DT)
- Tre Swilling (CB)

+ Emmanuel Johnson (DE)

I understand that the four above the line are better. I am just surprised he is not ATL for depth and use on special teams.
It seems we could use his experience and athletic ability in some capacity.

Emmanuel Johnson at DE surprises me. I figured him for a DT after a year with Lew. But hey, if he's earning his ATL let's play ball.

I love that OL, and I love that the NCAA's free year is really gonna benefit a team like us that's loaded with freshmen and sophomores.

Quite a lovely change. CGC says it starts up front on either the Pat Mac show or on the GT60.

Carpenter is maxing our the safety position... he could play linebacker if he wanted.

 

[JJacket]

Our starting OL first game this season is +18 lbs per player across the line from first game last season

Looking back and seeing how many people argued the size of the OL, you get a real feel for the dumbasses and those that knew what they were talking about.

The fact we played only the starters all 4 quarters with a hurryup is amazing.

And hopefully we won't have to see players get body slammed embarrassingly to the turf at skill positions as we get stronger. We were getting smaller and weaker each year across the entire team

He may actually kill a man going over the middle this season

I hope ucf receivers saw that tackle. Better stay out of the middle.

I hope they didn't.
