If Jon Opperud is a "beast" then the rest of the Montana Grizzlies' offensive line - Chuck Burton, Stephen Sabin, William Poehls and Danny Kistler - are the beauties.
The entire front has been a sight to behold of late: On Saturday, in their 41-14 Football Championship Subdivision playoff win over Central Arkansas, the Griz rushed for over 200 yards for a seventh straight game.
All of them have been victories and the Griz are 10-2 heading into Friday's nationally-televised quarterfinal game against Northern Iowa.
Montana has been good an all fronts during an 8-game winning streak, but the play of Opperud and the rest of the O-line is enough to turn heads.
"Jon Opperud's a good football player because he's smart," UM offensive line coach Bob Beers said Monday. "He never gets beat twice the same way. You might trick him once, but you ain't going to get him again. That's just the way it is."
