Wisconsin offensive line named semifinalist for Joe Moore Award
By Paul Harvey
Published:
Wisconsin is known for its strong run game and star running back Jonathan Taylor, but it is the offensive line unit that sets the table.
The Badgers are averaging 444.1 yards per game this season with 277.4 yards per game on the ground. The team is fourth nationally in rushing yards per game while Taylor leads the country with 1,869 yards on the ground. While Taylor is a big part of the offense, the o-line is the heart and soul of what drives Wisconsin.
On Tuesday, the Joe Moore Award selected Wisconsin’s offensive line as a semifinalist for the prestigious award. The award is the only one given annually to a unit as opposed to a single player.
Badger Football shared a tweet acknowledging the honor:
Big honor for our big men up front
