Notebook: Senior anchoring defensive line for UF

Bullard recorded two sacks and nearly doubled his season total of tackles (seven before Saturday night) with five against Kentucky, and was named the Southeastern Conference Defensive Line Player of the Week.

Head coach Jim McElwain was wowed by his performance but said the senior’s leadership has been even more impressive and is making a massive difference for Florida’s entire defensive line.

"His day-to-day work habits are something that affect that whole group," McElwain said.
