Best Offensive Lines

[Guest UTFan82]

Who do you guys think has the best offensive line in the state? I personally think that Cumberland County's offensive line definately earned this honor these kids are big and strong i dont see them having trouble with a defensive line in the state, their kids are LT Johnny Parham #72 6'2 255 lbs, LG #53 Gabe West 6'1 275 lbs, C #69 Billy Krause 6'2" 265 lbs, RG #64 Jake Houston 6'1" 250 lbs, and RT Sean Mullikin 6'7 300 lbs Cumberland County should go far this year behind these hogs.

Not as big or strong as many, the Centennial line has been surprisingly productive this year. A steady ground game allowing multiple backs to pick up huge gains, is a credit to these guys. They play hard and they play together. In their wishbone, communication and repetition is key, and they're off to a good start with both.

 

T- Trevor Croop 6'2" 240

G- Michael Smithson 6'3" 290

C- Zack Dye 5'11" 220

G- Travis Dumke 6'2" 250

T- Willis Nevils 6'2" 220

 

Also, despite not seeing them play, I would venture to guess the Franklin Rebel line is solid. With on offense that balanced, and productive, they'd have to be.

I gotta go with Cookeville's Offensive Line. They stacked very well against Lebanon. People here in Gallatin know that Coach Joslin will keep his line big and healthy. These are the stats from the Cookeville Program.

 

T. Matthew Bates 6'2'' 250

G. Bryan Sadler 5'11'' 220

C. Jim Ledford 6'3'' 285

G. Ben Jones 6'4'' 245

T. Mark Dean 6'3'' 230

I would have to go with Houston. Especially with Abe Felix averging about 200 yards a game. He is good but noone can do that by themselves

fairview has a great line this year, they are bigger and stronger than last year. they are alos the main reason aaron cothran is 1st in the midstate in rushing.

Don't know the particulars, but I do know Powell has a couple of huge ones (300+) and they both have had backs run for over 200 yards in a game...a quarterback (Cloudland's Byrd) and a former quarterback converted to tailback (Powell's Milligan).

dresden has one of the biggest lines this year and they prolly average close to 280 i dont know but it sire does look like it though

Hey, tight ends are hoggies too!! Please add them when you include o-lines. And yes i know i am biased, just please entertain me on this one.

Sweetwater has a tough line!

S. Evan Barr - 6'5" 270

S. Calvin Bradley- 6'0" 265

S. Cory Moser - 6'1" 205 (Gr. technique- plays bigger)

J. Jewel Burton - 5'11" 280

J. Chris Meier - 5'11" 275

 

J. TE. Phillip Mitchell- 5'10" 210

Also:

 

J. Corey Tallent - 6'2" 270

So. Michael Couch - 6'1" 230

So. Rob Burris - 6'1" 250

So. Timmy Martinez- 5'10" 260

Fr. Chris Burnette- 6'4" 235

 

They also have something else important in the running game, Backs & Receivers that like to lay a good block!

Huntingdons o-lline. All can run and play like demons. I won't post their sizes on here but i'd rate them all about mediums with one large. Go Mustangs!

[GreenBlood4]

i think that Waverly Central is one of the more dominating lines in the area they are a combiantion of of size strength and speed...its amazing when the team you are facing runs a total of about 8 plays and you know what is coming and you cant get there that is pure line...there backs are average their line is just amazing..they have got to be very well coached also...it is just amzing what they can do.....thumbs up to Waverly
