Ohio State offensive line named finalist for prestigious award
Published:
The four offensive lines that have been named finalists for the Joe Moore Award have been revealed. One B1G unit has made the final cut.
Ohio State’s offensive line is one of four to be included as a finalist for the Joe Moore Award, presented to the best offensive line in college football. The other three are Alabama, LSU and Oregon.
Ohio State and LSU are both competing in the College Football Playoff and Oregon was the Pac-12 champion.
The Buckeye offensive line paved the way for the most prolific rushing attack in the B1G, averaging 272 yards per game on the ground. That total ranked fifth-highest nationally, as well. It also blocked for Justin Fields, one of the four finalists for the Heisman Trophy.
A winner will be selected in late December following a surprise on-campus visit.
