The Boise State Broncos are looking to increase their sack production in the 2026 season. The team's defensive line, led by coordinator Jeff Schmedding, will be a key factor in achieving this goal. Boise State's defensive line has shown promise in recent years, but they have struggled to consistently deliver sacks. In 2025, the Broncos recorded 35 sacks, which ranked them 10th in the Mountain West Conference. To improve their sack totals, the Broncos will need to develop a more potent pass rush. This will require a combination of strong recruiting, effective coaching, and player development. The Broncos have a talented group of defensive linemen, including returning starters like defensive end Kekaula Kaniho and defensive tackle, but they will need to prove themselves in the upcoming season. The team's coaching staff will also play a crucial role in helping the defensive line improve their sack production. With a strong defensive line, the Broncos could be a force to be reckoned with in the Mountain West Conference. The team's fans are eagerly anticipating the 2026 season and hoping to see an improvement in sack production. The Broncos' ability to increase their sack totals will be a key factor in determining their success in the upcoming season.
