Rice Football 2022 Season Preview: Offensive Line

By

As part of our 2022 Rice Football Preseason Preview series, next we’ll examine the offensive line position and discuss the Owls’ plans for that group.

The Rice football offensive line has been a carousel of injuries and moving parts for much of the last four seasons. This time around, the Owls seem to have a starting five established before the beginning of fall camp featuring a core that has a good amount of playing experience alongside each other. Will that make a difference when the games begin? Here’s our 2022 Offensive Line Preview.
