We now have 12 different players averaging over 5 YPC on the season...

Have we ever had this much diversity and talent on one team or is our Oline just that good?

The thing that differentiates this RB group from other groups in the past to me is their speed. Brooks and Johnson are especially lethal but Cofield and Williams aren't bad in that department either.
The O-line is dominant though. Kolpack had an article about them this week talking about it. 5 MVFC offensive lineman of the week awards for the group and they've had the same starting 5 for every game this year *knockonwood* so continuity has been great as well. Entz did mention in his last press conference though when asked by Kolpack that he thinks the main reason the O-line has stayed healthy this year is that they've been able to rotate in guys like the Kubas bros, Jalen Sundell, and Cody Mauch enough so lineman rarely have to play more than 50 snaps in a game.

And, don’t believe everything you think—jussayin’.
Liberals of BV need not respond to my posts. I don’t need to get any more dumb.
I remember a quote from Blazek saying this could be the best OLine in NDSU history if they wanted to be. That was in fall camp and I thought it was ridiculous hyperbole. I now think I’m wrong.
the diversity of the entire offense is the best its been in the last decade, and quite possibly ever. What's even more unbelievable is that of the 7 players averaging over 5 YPC only 1 is a senior.
And 2 of them are true freshman
This is not 'Nam. This is Bisonville. There are rules here.
I wasn’t an Olinemen, but I would think it does take time for the Rams to come together and jell with timing and technique during the season. Especially with the new faces and position changes. Skies the limit for this crew. Scary to think they will only get better as the post season goes. They really blew the USD line off the ball last week. Also the oline blocking schemes are really keeping opponents on their heals. Kudos to the coaching staff as well.

Plugging Seth Wilson back into the mix for next season is quite exciting as well.
Previously I was a little concerned about losing Brooks next year. He seemed to have a unique explosiveness that our other backs couldn't quite match. After getting a peak at some of the freshman running backs, I'll still be sad to see Brooks go, but I think we're going to be just fine.
