Cornerbacks A.J. Green and Rodarius Williams have made more than three dozen combined starts during their respective Oklahoma State careers. Their experience and production will anchor the OSU defense in 2019, but plenty of other questions about the defense remain unanswered. Like this one:
How good is OSU’s defensive front going to be?
OSU lost Cole Walterscheid, Trey Carter, Enoch Smith, Darrion Daniels and Jarrell Owens from last season’s front line defensively. That is a lot of turnover, even for a program that’s recruited pretty well under coach Joe Bob Clements.
The turnover will put the pressure on newbies or young guns that really are just cutting their teeth up front.
