Florida football: Offensive line for Gators must keep Richardson upright
In our ongoing series, we are breaking down each position group for Florida football. Previously we have taken a look at:
Florida football offensive line
For quite some time, Florida football was undone by subpar play from the offensive line. Last season, however, the unit was arguably one of the better units in college football. Florida finished top ten in the country for the fewest sacks allowed with 14 total sacks surrendered.
The unit also found ways to commit penalties at some of the worst possible times. In particular, false start and holding penalties doomed Florida against Kentucky last year.
With a new coaching staff and a couple of transfers, this is a unit that should cut down on some of the silly mistakes of last season while continuing solid protection to keep Anthony Richardson upright.
Florida has 22 offensive linemen listed on the roster. We are not going to look at all 22 for this breakdown, but we are going to look at those we anticipate making an impact on this season.
