Ole Miss defensive coordinator Dave Wommack, like Foster, seems to favor 8-man fronts for his undersized defense. At least that was an adjustment made in 2012, according to: http://www.footballstudyhall.com/2013/7/11/4511664/ole-miss-denzel-nkemd... in 2012. Wommack was defensive coordinator at GT in 2008 and 2009.

What's with the accent on the e?

Is Bud trying to make a joke or still trying to figure out his keyboard?

hahaha, it's probably auto-correct.

That's not "auto correct".

It is correct because Bud sez so.

I think it was a comment on Ole Miss's matador defense.

Does this mean espn can claim we are trying to model our D off of the SEC?
If it means we get a crystal ball, who cares!

No... they will be too busy with the 'Bud to Olay Miss' rumor mill.

If it were just Bud, maybe. The entire defensive staff...it's probably a "sharing notes" kind of thing. I'm sure Ole Miss got more out if than Bud and the guys did, though that's not saying they didn't learn a few things.

I was joking - but you never know - the SEC would be more attractive than anywhere else

How does Ole' Miss' 8-man front compare to VT's in terms of NFL projections of players? Because they haven't had too much trouble recruiting defensive talent, relative to them being Ole' Miss.

Is there some opponent overlap here I am missing? I remember a few years ago they went to Iowa because of how they played GT. Or is there nothing else here and the 2 staffs simply wanted to collaborate?

They want Bud's Bama notes.
