Florida’s lines have chance for redemption against Colorado State

The Florida Gators are looking to pick up the pieces against Colorado State this weekend following their clunky loss to Kentucky. Two units that need to assert themselves are the offensive and defensive lines.

The offensive line has had a rough go of it so far in 2018. It did not impress even against a much smaller Charleston Southern defensive front in Week 1, and Kentucky’s SEC-sized defense found ways around and through the Gator blockers.

The defensive line hasn’t been as much of a liability, but it hasn’t been impressive either. The defensive tackles got more penetration against the Wildcats than you remember, but they didn’t always know what to do once they’d broken through.
