Wagner Quote regarding OL grading after the Wake Forest game:
"our right tackle (Evwaraye) was at 64 percent and our left tackle 
(Fuamatu-Thomas) was 51 percent. That's terrible." and "If we don't do 
better, (quarterback) Zac (Taylor) will be here talking to you next week 
in a wheelchair. He's taken a lot of hits back there."

Wagner also says Lydon Murtha will see his first action against Pitt:
"I want to get him in the game early, this should put some pressure on 
our other two guys (starting tackles) to perform. Lydon's been 
practicing all fall camp but we've been limiting his contact and he's 
been doing some drills, so he's a little further along than we thought 
he'd be right now."

The article also mentions using some two back sets with Cody Glenn as a 
fullback, to get him in the mix.
