The No. 9 Texas Longhorns returned all five starting offensive linemen from last season and now have one of the best pass blockers in the Big 12 conference.
Despite right guard Cole Hutson injuring his knee against Wyoming, the front five have been playing well during passing scenarios.
The starting big men up front have only allowed six sacks through six games. When it comes to protection, that number is great. Only averaging one sack per game allows quarterback Quinn Ewers to stay on his feet and read through his progressions, which can also contribute to his success this season.
In summary, the Texas offensive line has been extraordinary in the passing game. It should continue to be impressive as they come out of their bye week to face an inferior Houston defensive line.
Here are the best starting offensive linemen in the passing game through six weeks, according to PFF.
