NASHVILLE—-Miles Capers smiles for a second as he envisions it.
When Capers and Vanderbilt’s defense takes the field Saturday in Starkville, the quarterback across the line of scrimmage will be—barring health—former Vanderbilt signal caller AJ Swann. Mississippi State star quarterback Kamario Taylor is out for the season with injury and Swann beat out backup Parker Puckett. As a result, Swann could be Mississippi State’s starter when his former team comes to town.
Will that be odd for Capers and a number of other Vanderbilt defensive players who were around for Swann’s Vanderbilt career?
“Yeah,” Capers says with a laugh.
