Road grader, mauler, interior mover, when you think about Tulsa’s Tyler Smith, a bevy of adjectives that describe his physical style of play often come to mind.

But for Smith, dominating his opponent isn’t enough; winning the rep isn’t enough. He looks to staple your back to the dirt, and let you know about it, too. 

A freshman All-American selection in his redshirt campaign last fall, Smith was the driving force for the Golden Hurricane front five this season.

Primarily working outside at left tackle, his truly nasty skill set has introduced an athlete that you, the reader, will fall in love with as we move closer to April. Trust me.

When you look up the word ‘offensive lineman’ in the dictionary, Smith’s game exemplifies everything that is a quarterback protectant. Power? Check. Tenaciousness? Bold check.

But, his game is much more than just impressive muscular endurance in which he has been able to physically impose his will on opposing defenders.

Looked to be against one team, show me more against high end competition, they say he projects to be a guard also, where his mentality is great that will get unsportsmanlike conduct penalties in the NFL if he isn't careful. Definitely someone to watch in combines and All Star type games when he lines up against good guys every play.
