Spring football review: What is Northwestern’s strongest position group?

Spring ball has concluded for Northwestern football, and, while most of the 15 practices were closed to the media, some things are beginning to clarify themselves. With the spring season over, it’s a good time to reflect on where the team is at certain spots. In this article, the focus is on the strongest position group.

Based on reporting and limited access to practice, one position really stands out at the best: the defensive ends.

At the top of the depth chart, Northwestern brings back junior Joe Gaziano and sophomore Samdup Miller, both of whom turned in strong 2017 seasons.
