It appears young Zion Nelson is the starting Left Tackle for Miami game 1 as a true freshman. Obviously that is not entirely indicative of guaranteed success but it is still surprising to me. We had him so close to signing but apparently he made a solid decision. Wish the young man the best.

Just saw that. Shocking

He looked good on the first series.

Shoulda come to Boone.

Miami's O-Line is in shambles out there.

Last night should not be an aberration of how good he is or isn’t. He needed a year to bulk up properly. The fact that he played last night is more of an indictment on how bad Miami’s OL depth is.

I didn't watch the game, but based on the overwhelming comments on twitter even their fans were embarrassed - and that's for both teams!

They started three first time starters on the line. Both tackles were Freshmen and the Center was also making his first start. FU is going to stay in a lot of games because of their defense. The fact that Miami’s QB was able to walk off the field under his own power after the game, is a miracle.

If Miami can keep their QB up right they will be a problem in the ACC. That is a a HUGE IF, if last night was any indication. As for Florida I was very underwhelmed by their offense as a whole.
