like all teams, the OL was a hodge podge.

Some guys ranked significantly higher than others.
Broderick Jones and Tate Ratledge were high school studs.
Warren McClendon and Xavier Truss were just better than 3 stars.
Devin Willock was a mid 3 star.

It was an amazing OL.
But their blocking was helped by the tight ends and backs.
Their pass blocking was helped by our ability to run the football and by our quick pass game (which destroyed Oregon and South Carolina).
And as has been mentioned, having a senior QB with wheels helped them out a ton.
