It cannot be overstated how vital Texas A&M’s offensive line will be this coming season in determining just how successful the offense could be, outside of starting quarterback Marcel Reed improving as a pocket passer. In the backfield, senior running back Le’Veon Moss will lead the way, followed by Rueben Owens and Amari Daniels providing elite depth.
Under OC Collin Klein, the run game will continue to be a focus, providing Moss, Owens, and Daniels a pathway to leading the offense in what could be the most balanced attack in college football, thanks to the new additions at wide receiver, which will provide a boost to the passing game. Still, the run game is the primary strength, and behind Texas A&M’s veteran offensive line, this group should lead the SEC in total rushing yardage.
One name that continues to make the national media rounds is senior right guard Ar’maj Reed-Adams, who, after transferring from Kansas last season, has emerged as the team’s top run blocker and will likely pave the way for the running back corps throughout the season. This week, Pro Football Focus previewed the Aggies’ running attack, highlighting Reed-Adams and the rest of the projected starting O-line.
“This is something to be excited about for Texas A&M. We’ve talked about just the absolute slew of ball carriers that they have. We’re going to be flying all over the field, but it starts with this front five. And in their first year under Collin Klein, 27th in the nation in overall grade, 25th in run blocking grade, and it should be even better than that this year, especially with the diverse schemes.”
“And you got to remember, the first half of last year, they really didn’t know what they wanted their offense to be. Now with the dual-threat (Marcel) Reed as they quarterback heading into the season with a full offseason as the starter, I think the diversity you can get into with these run schemes, with the way Collin Klein calls his offense, they’re going to do alot of different things up front. But they’re physical, they’re talented, they’re consistent; I think Klein’s going to have them playing even better this year.”
With a veteran offensive line, especially one with extensive SEC experience, Collin Klein has a plan to keep opposing defenses off kilter with various run schemes that will feature Marcel Reed making plays with his legs. The talent is there, it’s just about putting it together and playing with consistency.
