USC’s Williams, Utah’s Orchard put spotlight on defensive lines
USC’s Leonard Williams is regarded as one of the most productive defensive lineman in college football.
Williams won’t be the only disruptive force on the field Saturday night when the No. 20 Trojans play No. 19 Utah at sold-out Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City.
Utah’s Nate Orchard has 10½ sacks, second-most in major college football.
The 6-foot-4, 255-pound Orchard has 39 tackles, including 13 for losses.
The 6-5, 300-pound Williams has been projected as the possible No. 1 pick in the 2015 NFL draft.
He has 45 tackles, including 4½ sacks, and has intercepted a pass and forced a fumble.
