The Offensive Line!

[NittanyChris]

For me, the most impressive aspect from the game this weekend, without a doubt, was the run blocking of the O-Line. Despite the seeming lack of a dominant OT (a la Levi Brown, Kareem McKenzie or Olu Fashanu), they absolutely dominated Illinois in the run game. They had nothing for the PSU run game. Hopefully, the injuries that occurred were minor but our depth is a bonus too, especially on the interior.

Really bodes well for the ROS!

WE ARE!!!

Some of those holes the OL opened up were huge. This is something we haven't had in years.

Vita and Donkah stood out to me...........

The rest were very, very good too. Dawkins does not get mentioned much, which for a C is not a bad thing, he must be calling the right calls for the OL as they are really matching up with the DL and their blitz packages.

I thought the fact that Cooper Cousins played the whole second half and not only did he not get beat or have any penalties, but they ran successfully over his side of the line frequently. For a true freshman he certainly did not appear to be a liability.
