In this episode, Zach Shaw and Steve Lorenz continue their position group preview series, flipping over to the defensive side of the ball to look at the defensive line. They look at the room’s strengths, question marks, position battles, X-factor players, stats to watch and make bold predictions for the room.
Their discussion begins with a look at Michigan’s dominance last season stopping the run, and why it feels replicable in 2023. They discuss what Kris Jenkins, Mason Graham and others can bring to the table. The talk then turns to the biggest question mark facing the room, the pass-rush, and why Michigan is in position to be better rushing the quarterback this fall. They also talk about the battle for the No. 3 defensive line role brewing this fall.
In the second half of the episode, they look at some of the true freshmen in the room, a key stat to watch and both make bold-statistical predictions for the room in 2023.
