I know I'm not breaking news about Pace to the people on this message board but when you watch him, I don't see how you can be better at offensive tackle than he was. He does everything at a high level.

I remember either Fickell or Vrabel saying that they teach how on the line that low man usually wins but that didn't matter against Pace

THE PANCAKE MAN. Orlando Pace is one of the best players in Ohio State football history. He was a two-time unanimous All-American left tackle for the Buckeyes from 1994-96, but that's not all. During his three-year career, Pace also won the Lombardi Award (twice), the Outland Trophy and finished in fourth place for the 1996 Heisman Trophy.

But wait – there's even more. Pace was so dominant at Ohio State that the term "Pancake Block" gained popularity due to his play. A pancake block occurs when an offensive lineman knocks a defender on his back at or past the line of scrimmage. And, well, Pace racked up a lot of those in college.

In a recent episode of Eli's Places with Eli Manning on ESPN+, Pace explained how he became known as The Pancake Man.
