Jason Bartel at SB Nation interviews Reggie Gilbert. What does the line as a whole need to do to generate more pass rush? We just gotta get after the quarterback. The third down mentality.

Bleacher Report with a pretty pointless article comparing Anu (and some guy from the OSU) to Winston and Johnny Football at the start of their Heisman years. Lots of data to tell you that Anu is off to a great start, but he probably won't win the Heisman this year.
