With 2019 in the rearview mirror, let’s take a look at the teams that brought in the best 1-2 punches at each position. Today we continue with the offensive line.

The skinny: If the Vols are able to regain some of their swagger on the field in the SEC in the coming years, it is possible that people will look back at this tandem of offensive tackles that helped bring about that revitalization. Both Wright and Morris have the potential to be dominant tackles in the SEC, which should go a long way in helping to improve the Tennessee offense. More work still needs to be done in Knoxville, but this helps prove that they are on the right track.

Farrell’s take: The best part about this duo is that they can each play tackle or guard and are physically ready to impact early. Morris has excellent feet and a strong base, while Wright is massive with good arm extension and technique. The success of these two linemen will go a long way toward the success of the offense.

The skinny: Picking up a commitment from Neal, a five-star tackle, during the late National Signing Day helped solidify Alabama’s placement on this list. While Neal is a physical and athletic specimen who should fit in perfectly with what the Tide try to do on offense, Quick is a technician at his position who down the road may become even more productive. The Tide have a long history of producing top-level offensive tackles, and there is no reason to believe that this trend will stop with the addition of Neal and Quick.

Farrell’s take: Neal looks like a future-first rounder at tackle, while Quick can play tackle or guard and is very versatile. Alabama has always had success recruiting elite offensive linemen under Nick Saban, and this year was no different.

The skinny: While the top two programs on this list focused on offensive tackles, LSU achieved impressive recruiting success at both guard and tackle. Thomas, the top-ranked guard in the country, was a huge priority for the coaching staff from day one, while grabbing Bradford from Michigan was an impressive recruiting victory for the Tigers. Thomas, who is from Baton Rouge, was a recruit that the Tigers could not lose in this class. He is huge and powerful, yet surprisingly light on his feet, and he should excel in the SEC.

Farrell’s take: I love this duo, because both are big and nasty and they could have the highest ceiling of any duo on the list. Thomas is probably close to what he will be in college: a nasty, road-grading guard who loves to mix it up, but Bradford could end up being a star with his size and light feet. These two will certainly help the running game.

The skinny: As many elite programs do, the Buckeyes rebounded quickly after suffering a recruiting loss on National Signing Day. Ohio State saw four-star guard Doug Nester flip to Virginia Tech in the morning, but quickly showcased its recruiting toughness by adding Vimahi, a four-star tackle, in the afternoon. Vimahi will fit in very nicely next to Miller, the No. 2 offensive guard in the country, who committed in early June and never wavered through the coaching transition in Columbus.

Farrell’s take: Miller is an elite guard, and he has a chance to impact early with his size and smarts, while Vimahi may take a little longer, but has a higher ceiling. This is a great 1-2 punch, because both players are athletic and can reach the second level, which is key in Ohio State’s offense. They will help the running game before the passing game, but can develop well at both.

The skinny: The Nittany Lions potentially found the keys to their interior offensive line for the next few years with the additions of Wallace and Wormley. The No. 4- and 5-ranked guards in the country, both move exceptionally well for their size, are strong and have the potential to continue to get better. Considering Penn State also added two of the top running backs in this class, Noah Cain and Devyn Ford, the Nittany Lions may have laid the foundation for a dominant rushing attack in the next couple of years.

Farrell’s take: Both Wallace and Wormley are excellent run-blockers who are also accomplished in pass protection and have good feet, so the middle of the line should be set down the road for Penn State. The Nittany Lions have done a very good job recruiting need at the offensive line position and this 1-2 punch is the best pure interior line duo around.
