Now that we’ve had some time to reflect after Northwestern wrapped up its 2018 season with a Holiday Bowl victory, it’s time to go back and break down the performance of each position group during the nine-win campaign. We’ll give out some individual grades and also provide an early preview into what that unit will look like in 2019. Up now is the offensive line.
Overall grade: B
As they have for three seasons running, the line started poorly. But things improved more than they had in each of the past two seasons down the stretch.
