Matchup to Watch: Ameet Pall v. Curt Porter

There are several big time individual matchups in this game, but perhaps none more intriguing than Wofford defensive lineman Ameet Pall versus Jacksonville State offensive tackle, Curt Porter. Pall, a Canadian, is only 250 pounds but has had an incredible season. He is a Buchanan award nominee with 47 tackles on the season. Not that big of a deal? Look again. Of those 47 tackles, an incredible 19.5 were for a loss including 12.5 sacks.

In all likelihood, Pall will be lined up against Curt Porter, possibly the best lineman ever to play at Jacksonville State. Porter, an All-OVC player is 6-7 and 315pounds and a prime reason that Jacksonville State has given up very few sacks this year. His play has not gone unnoticed, NFLDRAFTSCOUT.Com reates him as the 14th best tackle in all of college football and a 5th round pick.

GATA Curt.

  5. Pall probably plays @ 235 lbs soaking wet. He's only 5' 11". But wait until you see him play....you won't believe how fast he is.

  6. That's a pretty broad statement about heart and passion. I believe you meant YOU don't know of many people with heart and passion. Plenty of people at JSU have both. Are you from Wofford?

  7. All of these players have heart and passion...they r D-1 college football players...If they didnt have heart or passion then they wouldnt put up with half the crap they have to endure...Pall may have a field day playin against those SOCON offenses that are hardly physical (Basketball on grass) but he has not seen anything like the physicality if the OVC. and it is not like Porter hasnt played a "dominating" DE before. He played Derrick Morgan from georgia tech twice....What NFL star has Pall played??? End of the day Porter>Pall!!!
