Difference is that these are 315 - 325 lb. linemen putting up the same 40 times and strength numbers.

It's only 20 years ago. It's not that big of a difference. We're not talking about the 50's. People talk about '01 Miami and this is just a few years earlier.

so being heavier makes them superior? I'm not saying gains haven't been made, I'm saying it's very marginal. So to say a team like 2001 Miami could have success in todays game, is ridiculous. I think a lot of people arbitrarily assume since Bama has had a run with a freak at RB(Henry) and your DL is incredibly athleitic, you couldn't assume the same for the rest of the CFB world.
