Offensive Line Nickname

[lockvol]

Anybody have a good nickname for the strength of this year's team? I remember the "Tennessee Valley Authority" or "TVA" line back in the late 80's, early 90's with Antone Davis, Charles McRae, etc.

Let's see if they're worth a sh&t first. I know they should be good....but we've seen expectations blow up in our face many time.

The Wall

"The Butcher Block"

The Wall

Come on, The "Brick" Wall would fit better. But wall or brick wall, both would be better reserved for the d line. Lets see if they give us a reason to use it

They're great at pass protection, I've yet to be impressed by their run blocking. Hope they get physical and live up to the hype.

How about prom night? They look good in the dress but lets see if they come across when it matters.

Georgia has the "Gur-shall" running backs, how about "Tiny-bull-wuan-ful-stone"..? .

Seriously? I'll give them a nickname when we have a 1000yd rusher again.

Until they prove on the field that they can play as the BA's we (and the coaches) feel they can play like, I will call them the Stay Puft Marshmallow line.

I really hope they prove me wrong and play really, really nasty this year.

The Big Orange brick

Bricks build a foundation, and they are team 117`s foundation. It may not be the sexiest name, but "THE FOUNDATION" gets my vote. :hi:

Also known as the "Anna Kournikova". Passes the eye test but never wins anything.

Sweathogs!

Although I do agree with other posters about seeing them in action, if I were to make up a name for them I would call them the Big Orange Bulldozers.

This is an excellent idea.

We already had one of those. Great basketball coach. Heard he throws a hell of a barbecue.

I'm not entirely certain that is 100% on the line. It is n entirely possible, and likely that we have had running backs that didn't hit the holes at the right time, or cut when the hole was not there instead of just running into the cluster f*** for a 2yrd gain.

I'd rather see a running back that doesn't go down on the first hit 90% of the time.

Marlin Lane has shown great strides in that regard. He's a real "fall forward" type of back.
