Below are the average heights and weights of the projected two-deeps at Oregon, four top-tier SEC schools, and another Pac school. Without looking, which is Oregon?

My next post will be the reveal for which school is which.

B?

Speaking of DL, saw 247 has our DL recruiting class rates as top 5 in the country. That would be two classes ina row with top 5 DL recruiting classes.

I thought so too, just because Burch is so tall at edge. I didn't think Popo was that heavy though.

I thought I read the other day he was like 305. And our other starting DE is Dorlus who is 290ish. And that doesn’t take into account 6’5 270 Mateo.

It looks like none of these numbers match what's on the Oregon 2023 Football Roster. Either a height or weight is different.

Yeah, looks like Popo gained a few (11 pounds), as did Taki (15 pounds).

Consider Funa and Shipley are each 6'3" and 270 and 255 at the other OLB spots.

Our Defense finding its rhythm will be what propels this team to its potential this year.

All data based on OurLads.

Just spot checked again and don't know what you're seeing. Pulled directly from here for Oregon: https://goducks.com/sports/football/roster

Couple observations:

-Long gone are the days where Oregon has virtually no 300 pounders to man the middle on defense.
-Weight doesn't distinguish the power southeastern teams from Oregon or washington
-Florida has some big, big boys
-washington has ample size and talent on the DL to compete nationally. I almost forgot Jacob Bandes (high 4*) was there, and he's not even a starter
-If USC didn't get transfers in this offseason, their DL would be absolutely pathetic, both in size and talent. An injury or two is going to decimate them up front.

The thing that stands out to me most is the size of the edge players on LSU, UA and Georgia. They're all lighter than we have at Oregon. Is that intentional? Are they trying to be faster off the edges? If so, why wouldn't Dan Lanning (and Tosh) take a similar approach? That is, unless the guys we have offer similar speed.

Thoughts?

I think if LSU could trade Bradyn Swinson for Jordan Burch or Matayo Uiagalelei, they would.

Good point.
