Hadn't they been practicing at the opposite positions all week? I hope not. Doesn't make much sense if true.

We have no idea where they practiced throughout the week...

Sam may finally have reliable protection today!

So the guy that is best regarded for playing right tackle is playing left tackle and the guy that is best regarded for playing left tackle is playing right tackle?

Must be Opposites Day.

Christensen is best regarded for playing LT? I know that was his position in college but pretty sure most would agree he's better suited at RT or guard in the NFL.

So far Moton and Christensen are playing pretty good, our interior meanwhile...

Bc got bull rushed the last two offensive plays.  Not good.

I agree on RT…but guard…meh. Maybe if his short arms are an issue but he’s athletic. Corse all we really have is college film vs poo teams to go by. But BYU oline program is top of the line.

He's a rookie in his first start, give him some time.

Well this is about what I expected. He’s showing some flashes, but overall not playing great. Which is fine, he’s a rookie playing the opposite side from college. The coaches aren’t stupid not playing him all season, he just isn’t ready yet. Good news is the game time should get him ready faster than practice… as long as it doesn’t cost us a Sam injury.

Christensen just isn't physically strong enough. He needs to live in the weight room this off-season. He's gotta get stronger if he's going to make an impact on the field.

This has been one of the worst offensive showings of the season. Even with CMC, I don't think we can fix what ails us this year.

Sweat is just pushing him back every play.  No fancy moves just over powering him.   I doubt he is going to get stronger the dude is pushing 30
