Quarterback Rocco Becht has praised the offensive line for their strong performance, only allowing eight sacks so far this season, tied for the second-best in the conference.
Offensive coordinator Taylor Mouser commended the group for their toughness, physicality, and preparation in facing different defensive challenges each week.
