I disagree totally Mr. right. Technique is the only chance a smaller, weaker guy has.
I've seen and coached lineman who couldn't bench 200lbs but they were great technique guys. I bet you Haywood or Maglone would never say tech. is over rated.
Low man does win, But a big ole boy who is strong as an ox but never been coached up on fundamentals or technique will lose the battle to a smaller weaker guy who is fundamentally sound and has been coached up on proopper technique. It's all abot propper technique. Breathitt won it in 1995 and 3 of their guys on that o-line were 200 lbs or less. Breathitt won it in 96 and 4 of their guys were 200lbs or less. Their starting center Jamie Gross weighed right around 180. Ricky Brewer, Breathitt's o-line coach and who I played highschool football with told me right out of his own mouth that they didn't have brute strength, But his line was good technique technichians.
