Diaco talked about college linemen being able to move three feet beyond the the line of scrimmage on pass plays which makes it difficult to tell if the play is a run or pass. My question to the OL experts out there is Nebraska doing this with there linemen? If not, why not?

No we are not. Teams like Oklahoma are killing people with it, we make our D defend it, but haven't utilized it that I have seen.

Nope. Run the ball every play is all that will ever work here. Like I have said for years, to hell with taking advantage of the rules handcuffing defenses.
I remember seeing it a lot during the Oregon game where we were basically run blocking on a pass play. I don't know if we did it as much against NIU. From what I've seen, we have taken advantage of the rule.
On Saturday I saw run blocking push the defensive line back over 3 yards.
Then when we had the ball, our run blocking went backwards a yard.
Guessing the OL doesn't know that they can legally go past the line of scrimmage on any play whatsoever...
