OT Landon Young vs. DE Brian Burns

Breakdown: There was no adjustment period needed for the 6-foot-7, 298-pound
Landon Young. He came to San Antonio ready to play and his length and athleticism is exactly what college coaches look for in left tackles. Brian Burns, though, will test Young’s proficiency in those areas because his 6-foot-5, 217-pound frame provides him with the leverage to work against tall offensive tackles and his quickness has been difficult for East linemen to stop this week. And though Burns is on the lighter side for defensive end, he has surprised several linemen this week with his strength at the point of attack.

Prediction: The key for the West offense on Saturday will be to keep their quarterbacks’ jerseys clean, so expect Young to rise to the occasion and have a strong showing.
