From the very first snap of the season, Pitt’s coaches have shown that they intend to do some interesting things with the offensive line in 2016.

So far we've seen linemen in motion and a cornucopia of unbalanced line combinations. Sometimes it works - like Quadree Henderson's 50-yard touchdown run against Oklahoma State - and sometimes it doesn't. Like when Pitt went super-heavy on the left side of the line - five linemen to the left of the center, plus a tight end - on that crucial third-and-4 in the fourth quarter at Oklahoma State.

Here's a closer look at Pitt's creativity with the line and the results that have come from it.
