Very true, in college teams will have 1 or 2 "big men" and so you just run around them, in the NFL they are all "big men" on the line so you have to shake that mentality, take what you can and learn to trust your OL to open that hole for that 1-2 seconds and dart thru it.

People always say it's the speed, but it's not just the speed.
