Thayer Munford is excited to be back in his “natural habitat” and play left tackle in the Rose Bowl, where he wants to get the bad taste out of his mouth from the loss to Michigan.
“I’ve gotta get that bad taste out of my mouth,” Munford said Wednesday.
While Munford still played some snaps at left tackle this season, including that play against Michigan, he saw most of his playing time this year at left guard – 554 of his 634 total snaps, per– as he kicked inside to open up the left tackle spot for Petit-Frere, which in turn opened up the right tackle spot for Dawand Jones.
With Petit-Frere leaving the team to turn his focus toward the 2022 NFL draft, Munford says he has been lining up exclusively at tackle in bowl practices, which he thinks will help prepare him to play at his best against Utah after cross-training between guard and tackle throughout the regular season.
That said, Saturday will be an opportunity for Munford to showcase what he can do as a tackle one more time in his final collegiate game, in which he’ll go up against a Utah defensive front that includes several NFL prospects like defensive end Mika Tafua and linebackers Devin Lloyd and Nephi Sewell.“I can't wait to actually see what they can actually do up front instead of just seeing it on film,” Munford said. “I just can't wait to play this game, see what they've got.
