That's the offensive line. Sometimes they need to build a 10-play drive from the single wing. Last week, they just gave Chase London the time he needed to complete passes down the field.

The headline act up front is left tackle Harrison Sorge, who committed to North Texas before his senior season. Not only does Sorge (6-4, 290) not look for the spotlight, but his blocking keeps the man lining up across from him from making the highlight reel with any hits.

He made his name a year ago with a solid blocking job against Denton Ryan's Mario Edwards.

But that didn't change big No. 76 for the black and gold.

"Moving someone back, it's a lot of fun," Sorge said. "You drive them back and take control of them. That's a good feeling. They have no control, and they're trying to get off, and you knock them down."
