UH's overlooked offensive line has a chip on its shoulder and a lofty goal ahead

The University of Houston's offensive line, composed of five players who took unconventional paths to the program, has a "chip on its shoulder" and aims to win the Joe Moore Award, awarded to the nation's top offensive line. The starting five includes Shadre Hurst, a two-time All-AAC first-team selection; McKenzie Agnello, a second-team All-Mountain West selection and highest-rated pass blocker; Anthony Boswell, first-team All-MAC and No. 10 offensive grade among FBS centers; Drew Terrill, second-team All-MAC and No. 1 run-block grade in the MAC; and Alvin Ebosele, a Power Four starter who started all 13 games at Baylor.

All five players were overlooked by major recruiters and built their respective reputations through hard work and dedication.
