Texas Tech key spring issues: Will the Red Raiders' defensive line show improvement?

Editor's note: This is the third of a five-part series examining issues surrounding the 2019 Texas Tech Red Raiders.

There are many issues to address when it comes to Texas Tech's defense, starting in the trenches. Can the Red Raiders' front line do a better job of generating pressure and taking away the run game?

Tech gave up 160.6 rushing yards per game last season, which was the fourth most in the Big 12. The Red Raiders also recorded the fourth fewest sacks in the Big 12, with 28. It's key that they decrease yardage surrendered and increase the amount of sacks next season.
