[su_spacer size=”20″] A recent ranking of offensive lineman by Matt Brown (Sports On Earth) reminded me that offensive firepower can be traced directly to the talent of a team’s offensive line.
[su_spacer size=”40″] Brown places one of Georgia’s offensive lineman (Greg Pyke) in his top 25 with another meriting an honorable mention (John Theus).  With 4 returning starters and potentially nationally ranked players like Pyke and Theus, Georgia should be in good position to protect its rookie quarterback and unleash its stable of running backs.

15. Greg Pyke, G, Georgia. Todd Gurley and Nick Chubb are two of the most talented running backs in years, but partial credit for their ability to average over seven yards per carry goes to the offensive line. The best of the four returning starters who will block for Chubb this year is Pyke, a right guard who broke out as an All-SEC performer in his first season in the lineup.
