Udub has a top 5 offensive line. They are big, experienced, and physical.
You obviously believe in the old adage - post it enough and it becomes true.
Washington has some talent on their O-line but they have little quality depth behind the starters. They are also moving kids around to new positions. If you would have done a little homework before posting, you would know who starts the first game is very iffy at this time.
Adams (LT) and McGary (RT) are by far their best two linemen. Adams is one of the best in the country. But unfortunately for him, he is coming off an acl injury. If reports coming out of Seattle are true he has not resumed practicing yet and his return for the Auburn game is questionable. If he does not return or is less than 100 percent, Washington's advantage on the OL takes a huge hit. It also means they will most likely move their LG (Wattenberg) to LT or start a redshirt freshman at the position (Henry Bainivalua). Wattenberg was moved out last year after Adams was injured but Bainivalua has been receiving most of the snaps there during camp. Neither of these kids have the talent or experience to replace Adams.
Then there is Nick Harris. You probably remember him from the bama game. He was the right guard who was abused over and over and over again. He is being moved to center this year. Hopefully he is a better center than guard or his nightmare has just begun.
Who replaces Harris at right guard is up in the air. It will be either Bainivalua if he is not moved to LT or Henry Roberts. Roberts has been a major disappointment up to now and Bainivalua (as mentioned previously) is a redshirt frosh. Can’t imagine either of these guys holding their own against one of the best D-lines in the country.
Bottom line, if Adams is 100 percent and Wattenberg remains at LG, Washington will have 3 solid OL starters returning from last years team. Only new starters will be center and RG.
Everything changes however if Adams does not play and Wattenberg is forced outside. Washington will end up starting a backup LT, a backup LG, a new center and new RG. McGary will be the only returning starter who started at his position last year. The experience factor you keep harping on goes right out the door along with any advantage Washington has across the front.
