Durkin ran a 3-2-6 at Ole Miss. it gave the SEC trouble at the time. I am not sure what his latest scheme looks like but it didn’t stop Ole Miss that’s for sure. He was loaded on defensive talent. Granted Jimbo’s offense was so bad the fact that they did as well as they did is probably worth mentioning.

He also gave up 50 points and 700 yards of offense to ark that year as well but he had them rolling at the end of the year.

This scheme at Ole Miss did very well if our offense was clicking and forcing the opposing team pass the ball. But we had a lot of trouble stopping teams from running the ball.

His defense is one reason why Lane kept going for it at really odd times on 4th down. People lost their shite over him going for it on his own 30 yard line early in the game but completely forgot about Bama taking the ball 99 yards for a TD in the same quarter.

Chance Campbell was a HUGE key in defense at Linebacker. Absolutely a difference maker.
