The discrepancies become even more notable when you take out the high and low man. Which, of course, gives an idea of how much the unit has played together, even beyond what we all know to be true.
So the three true middle guys:
ND in 2013: 12 starts and 23.66 games played
FSU in 2011: 13.66 starts and 21 games played
OU's expected OL @ TN in 2015: 5 starts and 21.66 games played
