The Michigan State defensive line had a solid season in 2021, but the production wasn’t quite up to the Spartans’ typical levels. The team was stout against the run and recorded a high number of sacks (42), but the team also faced a high number of passing attempts (579), so perhaps the numbers aren’t as impressive while adjusting for that. Historically, the defensive line has been the anchor of some stout units for MSU, and if the Spartans want to take a step forward in 2022, that will start with the defensive line.
