Center Nick Easton is a big dude
Harvard chimes in with its starting lineups here.
The Crimson start the season first, with a night contest against Holy Cross on Friday.
The average weight for the O-line starters is 291, including a 300 pounder at Center.
Only one non-upperclassmen is starting, and that's sophomore Sean Ahern at CB.
11 sophomores are listed as 2's.
The only freshman anywhere on the two-deep is the backup Punter, Zach Schmid.
Yale Two Deep
Yale's starting line-ups are here.
As expected, Morgan Roberts gets the start at QB. RB Tyler Varga is apparently healthy and starting in a single-back offensive set with three WR's.
Average weight of the starting O-linemen is 291 lbs.
Freshman DT Nick Crowle gets the start. So does freshman Matthew Oplinger at one of the LB slots.
10 sophomores are starting, seven of them on defense.
Penn Two Deep
You'll notice that Penn's game notes do not use the term "two-deep," and instead call what looks like the two-deeps Penn offensive and defensive "notables."
That sounds like a classic hedge, but I'll treat it like starting lineups anyway.
The controversial Lyle Marsh gets the start at the RB position. Talented RB Spencer Kulcsar moves to starting WR.
The Quaker O-line looks lighter than usual; the average weight for O-linemen is 272 lbs including a 260 pound sophomore LG named Dan Poulos.
Four sophomores in total are starters, including QB Alek Torgersen.
Freshman Brock Elmore is the starting punter. The kicker is a junior, but has never had a varsity kick attempt.

The Atomic Football rankings has Harvard beating Holy Cross easily.
Another Atomic prediction is Fordham 42 Columbia 13. Seems accurate but more likely Fordham will break 50.
Excellent article on Coach Mangurian and the state of Lion football in the new Columbia College Today (Fall 2014). Those of us concerned only with first downs may not be that impressed but there are other "firsts" presented that deserve consideration. A good read in any case.
As Jake so easily retorts, this article is a piece of dung that is neither true nor representative of what has taken place.
But man do some of you guys really polish a good apple.
...laughing out loud
PM is also on the search committee along with Bill Campbell and Dianne Murphy for a new AD. 8 total involved in AD search process along with a Sports Executive Search firm.
Why do I have no confidence in this "search"? As someone else posted earlier, I will be SHOCKED if the next AD hire is not extremely PC and unconventional.
I wonder how the CU coaches of teams that are actually succesful feel about PM being on the search committe...
I really don't believe the search committee has been assembled despite what Danny says.
Jake, why don't you believe it? Seems like quite a lot to concoct out of thin air.
Because all the other sources on campus say the committee has not been assembled.
Jake, you obviously don't golf with the right sources. Look at my prior posts and tell me where I have been wrong once. I most recently posted about a shake up on the Oline which is proven by the freshman starting at left guard. I posted injuries to the defense which is why Hunter Little is not starting.
I would have thought Bill C was stepping out of these matters by now. Signs were pointing in that direction. He has done enough for the program. Time to move on Uncle Bill.
PM on the search committee is a slap in the face if true.
Danny: you were wrong about the 40 times. A falsehood that has been triple-confirmed.
