I know it definitely contributed to our loss. They wore our DTs, especially our true froshies the hell out and they'd played outstanding against everyone else (other good OLs inluded). Even MLB Kirkland remarked on Arky being so big and physical and I think he's gonna be one of the best we've ever had at that position but he too was a true froshie.

That said, Collins did tons on his own. The OL opened the way, sure but his moves made things happen. I wouldn't undervalue him because of the OL even though they certainly helped him out.

I think he's better than you give him credit for although he's not the best ever, he's no slouch and has tons of room to improve in the pros as many RBs have.

He definitely didn't gain 1500+ yards because our line was big. That kid has the best vision and jump cut that I've ever seen.
