The tone of a football game can be determined early if the defensive line can get to the quarterback, and Appalachian State has a lot of big bodies to throw at the opposing quarterback.
“We pride ourselves over the last couple years having great depth,” defensive line coach Mark Ivey said. “I think this year our depth could be as good as it’s ever been because those second and third team guys have been proving to us there is not a big drop off from the first team.”
It has been nothing but high praise from Ivey and he is excited to see what the defensive line can do during a regular season game.
