Former Alabama LB highlights what he likes best about Kane Wommack’s defense ahead of UGA game

Alabama football has some things to clean up on defense, but Kane Wommack is off to a good start in his career as the defensive play-caller for the Crimson Tide.

His 4-2-5 “Swarm Defense” scheme from South Alabama has the Tide allowing 8.7 points and 248 yards per game.

Alabama fans would like to see more sacks, better attention versus the run, and more takeaways, but Wommack did not have to dive deeper into his bag in the first three matchups. His showdown against Mike Bobo of Georgia next week on Saban Field at Bryant-Denny Stadium will be a chance for him to show the masses he was the right hire for Alabama.
