Northwestern football season in review: Grading the offensive line

Now that we’ve had some time to reflect after Northwestern wrapped up its 2017 season with a Music City Bowl victory, it’s time to go back and break down the performance of each position group during the 10-win campaign. We’ll give out some individual grades and also provide an early preview into what that unit will look like in 2018. To finish the offense, we have the offensive line.

Overall Grade: B

No unit epitomized Northwestern’s 2017 turnaround more than the offensive line. After two years of much-maligned performance, we collectively buried the unit after losses to Nevada, Duke and Wisconsin.
