We close out our 2021 Houston football offensive position grades by taking a look back at how the UH football team’s offensive line held up throughout the season.
Trouble with pass protection
It was evident that protecting quarterback Clayton Tune would be an issue for the Cougars’ big guys upfront from the beginning of the season as the UH offensive line allowed 11 sacks over the first three games of the season.
While there were some bright spots in pass protection, most notably allowing no sacks against Tulsa and UConn, Tune was under heavy duress for a large portion of the times he dropped back to pass.
