2024 state of the position: BGSU linebackers

This is the fifth story of a seven-part series breaking down position groups on Bowling Green State University’s roster entering the 2024 season.

BOWLING GREEN — Bowling Green State University’s football team had some serious talent, athleticism, and explosiveness in the middle of its defense last season.

Although a couple of critical pieces of that unit are gone, the linebacker corps could be in for another productive year.

Five players with starting experience, including one of BGSU’s leading tacklers in Joseph Sipp, Jr., return at linebacker for the Falcons. BGSU has two enormous holes to fill in Darren Anders, who completed his college eligibility, and Cashius Howell, who transferred to Texas A&M, but the Falcons have some newcomers who could step right in.
