Have you ever wondered about the daily diet of an offensive lineman? Well, Purdue guard Marcus Mbow is providing fans with a behind-the-scenes look at his calorie conception over the course of a normal practice day.

Spoiler alert: it's a lot of food.

Just eating that much food seems like a full-time job. Imagine working in school, practice, workouts and more.

Per the Purdue football roster, Mbow is listed at 6-foot-5, 300 pounds. He started in all 14 games for the Boilermakers during the 2022 season, helping lead the team to a Big Ten West title. He started in six contests last season before sustaining an injury.

Mbow has been a critical piece to Purdue's success over the years and that will continue to be the case in 2024.
