Buff Line Big, Experienced
One of the big reasons why Colorado has such a fine passing attack, and the constant threat of the breakaway run, is the fine front line which protects and blocks with authority.
Colorado's tackle corps is the biggest and brawniest group ever to assemble in the Buffalo camp. There is a good amount of experience and this could be the finest tackle delegation ever at Boulder.

HECK ISN'T A NEWCOMER TO guard. He stepped into the breach late last season when injuries wiped out both starting guards. He is big (6-1, 201) and is strong and an excellent linebacker.
