They play a ton or 3-4. They have the best LB group in the country and Saban's philosophy has always been to cover the middle of the field first. Cody is just about like having two linemen anyway so it really works out for Saban to run the 3-4. Plus, it gives him an extra LB, usually #13-Reamer, to send on blitzes.

I think if you put Parsons at FB, LSU can have some success running against their base 3-4. However I think you'll see 8 in the box alot anyhow, with Bama daring JJ to beat them.
