Some of you guys more knowledgeable than me please explain to me why the 3-4 defense isn't just a 5-2 instead. It looks like a 5-2 on the diagrams.





It looks nothing like a 5-2

3-4 means 3 dline player with their hand in the dirt and 4 lbs standing behind them . It supposed to mask where the 4th rusher is coming from. It's works the best when you have beast OLB that can rush the passer and are athletic enough to drop in coverage on occasion.

See 2011 Bama def for a great example.

Thanks - can't wait to see how our personnel are used in this system. Sounds like Aranda can take our athletes and put them in a spot that fits their skill set to make plays. Looks like a very flexible philosophy that should be fun to watch.
