2 first time starters on the O line including a true freshman sounds like. Could be interesting. Thank heavens Pelini left so much quality depth in those upperclassmen linemen.:rolleyes:

It's sticking in my head that Will Shields was the last OL to start a game as a true freshman. Am I right on that? Anyone?

Moore started the opener as a frshman and I believe Javario Burkes started later in the year as a freshman.

Not sure he ended up there. Thought he said he was going there but ended up at USF chasing tail.
For sure he played for the Gators. I remember because there was this funny play where Moore was run-blocking, lost his guy and started to block the next guy he ran into. Which ended up being one of his own teammates.

Does it count as a pancake when you take your own teammate down?
