There are many new names and faces on the Stanford defensive line. While they may not be as dominant as their party in the backfield days this unit should be good in 2016.
Remember #partyinthebackfield? Just a couple years ago, Stanford’s defensive line was unstoppable, dominant, and the best. Last year, Stanford’s defensive line took a step back but was still dependable and solid. However, Stanford loses key veterans Brennan Scarlett and Aziz Shittu as well as longtime defensive line coach Randy Hart. With only one starter returning, how will Solomon Thomas and the rest of the defensive line fair in 2016?
