The Miami starting offensive line with an average weight of 329 pounds will play against a South Florida defensive line with an average weight of 272.5 pounds on Saturday. With a 56.5 pound weight advantage, Miami should be able to assert its will against South Florida on the line of scrimmage offensively.
Max Chadwick and Dalton Wasserman of Pro Football Focus extensively examined the edge Miami will have on the line of scrimmage over South Florida in their preview of the game earlier this week. South Florida had trouble creating pressure from their front four in an 18-16 win over Florida in week two.
