Here are the bios for this matchup:
No. 3 seed Rodney Hudson vs. No. 6 seed Brett Williams
Rodney Hudson was fairly unheralded when he arrived at Florida State as a three-star prospect in 2007, but he impressed coaches and teammates from day one with his work ethic, toughness and attention to detail, and he took over a starting job early in his freshman year. Hudson went on to anchor FSU's offensive line for the entirety of his college career and earned first-team All-ACC honors following his sophomore, junior and senior years. The Alabama product was a unanimous first-team All-American as a senior and received the Jacobs Blocking Trophy as the top lineman in the ACC. He went on to be drafted in the second round of the NFL Draft and has earned multiple trips to the Pro Bowl.
Brett Williams redshirted as a freshman in 1998 and then started each of the next four years at Florida State. The Kissimmee, Fla., native was named a Freshman All-American for his performance on the Seminoles' 1999 national championship team, and he won the Jacobs Trophy as the ACC's top blocker in 2001 and 2002. Williams was named a second-team All-American by some outlets as a sophomore and a first-team All-American as a senior. At 6-foot-6 and over 300 pounds, Williams was a dominant left tackle on the college level and went on to be a fourth-round pick of the Kansas City Chiefs before his pro career was cut short due to injuries.
