Which opposing defensive lineman gave you the toughest head-to-head matchup during your career?
Everson Griffen was good, Brandon Graham was better, but this year Adrian Clayborn was by far the toughest head-to-head matchup. Next year he will be this year’s Suh.
OSU tackle Jim Cordle, as quoted by ElevenWarriors.com. Little known fact: "Adrian" is French for "House of Spears."

Jim Cordle has felt the autumn wind

I have an issue with the poem.
Adrian Clayborn’s face cannot be weather-beaten because nothing beats AC.
Can we get a "HEISMAN - NOM NOM NOM" marketing plan together?
Maybe a billboard. It worked for Joey Harrington.
I think you'd either have to get Clayborn to change
his name to rhyme with “Heisman”, or more likely, get the DAC to change the name of the trophy to rhyme with “Clayborn”.
Granted, I don't know what down it is..
Should I be worried...
that the first thing I came up with when trying to rhyme Clayborn is: gayporn? Please, AC, don’t smash me.
I'm sure there is a trophy for that, too.
Granted, I don't know what down it is..
searching google images for "Adrian Clayborn" returns some puzzling results
And this blog and its users are nearly 100% responsible
Some fun examples: Britney Mears, a smashed taxi cab, Bill Murray as Ernie McCracken (i’ll take credit for that!), Elrond Half-Elven, A scene from The Departed, Bass ProShops, and the Architect from the Matrix
And that’s with Safeseach ON…

No, its "HULK SMASH"
You stand corrected, sir.
Adrian “The Hulk” Clayborn sounds so cool.

I'm exposing my geekiness
by interjecting that there are plenty of Hulk bodies to choose from these days.

Him and the rest of that D-Line is going to be BRUTAL next season.

Broderick Binns better have a big off season
because he is going to see a TON action next year. I expect many teams to do a GTECH 2nd half, and run the hell away from Clayborn. We need to put the best linebacker on Binns’ side of the field, and We need to develop a back-up for him too, ’cause he is going to need a breather.

They will probably move Clayborn around.
ALOT. To keep exactly that from happening. But I totally agree with what you are saying.

Not really
Iowa runs weird fronts in situational, um, situations from time to time. Stunts, DEs on the inside, whatever. It’s not a usual occurrence—and I’ll wager that we see fewer than 10 snaps with Clayborn in Binns’ spot at LDE—but whenever there’s substitution going on, it’s more often than not at DL.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
They also run alot of stunts
Over-unders etc. to counteract double teams and certain blocking schemes

Well...
regarding backups, I guess that means it will be important to remember that Lebron Daniel is #58, and that Mike Daniels is #93. Yet, I’m sure at some point (or points) this season, I will be asking the guy who sits next to me at Kinnick: “Was that Daniel, or Daniels?”
And that dude sitting next to me will belch, and say “Jack Daniels.”

My vote is
to play Clayborn as the lone D lineman and play with an extra safety and two extra linebackers. It will do for defenses what the spread did for offenses. The lone caveat being, of course, that a team must have the right personnel i.e. a lineman who brings his dog as his spokesman, may or may not eat punters and looks like the Blaxploitation version of Santa Claus.

True.
Maybe a call to Mr. Parker can make it happen?
