Indiana’s offensive line was not very good this season. Connor Bazelak struggled behind the Hoosiers offensive line and the team suffered because of it.
Indiana was 12th in the B1G in total offensive yards per game (328.3) this season. The Hoosiers also had problems running the ball, averaging just 110.8 yards per game which ranked second to last in the conference.
Tom Allen will be hoping that an experienced OL coach like Bostad can bring some life into the Indiana offensive line. Indiana finished the 2022 season with a 4-8 record and will miss bowl season for the second year in a row.
