2015 Oklahoma Sooners Football Preview | The Defensive Line In New But Is It Improved?

With only one returning starter coming back in 2015, Oklahoma's defensive line has the opportunity to push the reset button and start over. If the Sooners stick with a 3-4 alignment then they have a gigantic hole to fill at the nose tackle position where Jordan Phillips used to line up. A advantage of that scheme though is that they'll be able to take advantage of having four linebackers with starting experience, and the linebackers will be the strength of the defense anyway. The other advantage is that it won't require as many bodies on a line that is vastly depleted of returning experience.
