Texas Football: Offensive line is the engine of the offense

The 2018 Texas Longhorns football team presented a well-balanced offense. Not explosive. Not flashy. But they did their job and were able to average over 31 points a game. They rushed for over 150 yards a game and threw for just under 260 yards a game. Those are numbers that win games and it did for Texas football. A 10-4 record and Sugar Bowl victory.

Those numbers are great, and the 2019 Longhorns may even surpass them, but they are all rooted in one place. The offensive line. If the Burnt Orange has any chance of making the College Football Playoff, the O-Line unit needs to be healthy and functioning at a high level.
