Minnesota Football: Offensive Line Q&A With Derek Burns

The Minnesota offensive line has had a rough season so far. Maligned by fans and hampered by injuries, the unit has not been the force and anchor of the offense that Gopher fans had hoped for. I think most if not all of us have thoughts about what might be going on, but the thing about offensive line play is that it's can be a difficult unit for fans to understand in depth. To help with that, we reached out to former Minnesota Gophers offensive lineman Derek Burns.

The TDG staff came up with some questions that we hoped would help any Gopher fan better understand the play of the Minnesota offensive line and that might help us all get a better perspective on what the big guys up front are dealing with on a week to week basis.
