Iowa State football: Final grades for Cyclone coaches and offensive unit

Offensive line: C

The rotating carousel finally found some consistency in November, and it made a world of difference. Things clicked. Losing Kyle Lichtenberg for most of the season hurt, but Tom Farniok stepped up at center after an early-season injury hobbled him. He’ll be back for his senior campaign next year, and hopefully the line won’t continue to be patchworked with multiple players.

With plenty of lower classmen getting playing time and Farniok’s return, this line should also be improved next year.
