Good o-line = says that they have allowed zero sacks to FCS opponents

. . . thing about offensive linemen is they’re a different lot.
They come in all shapes and sizes. They can be a mixture of cerebral, jovial and snarling fierce. They have to work hand-in-hand, like fingers in a glove, understanding that one bad digit can spiral the entire unit down. And linemen are good guys to know if you need some muscle to move a couch or deep freezer.

Said Hornets head coach Troy Taylor, “It’s a great group. The offensive line is often the most intelligent group. Some think that linemen are just big guys who like to hit others. You have to be smart and have to be ready for what’s coming. And all championships go through the line.” A year after injuries set the tone of a 2-8 Hornets season, including Ming going down with a broken leg in the season opener, Sac State has largely been healthy across the board. The Hornets have started the same five linemen in each game – Troy Stiefel at left tackle next to Bianco, the left guard, Ming at center, Thomas Parker at right guard and Brandon Weldon at right tackle. The loud one of the lot is Ming.
