LSU plays in 4-3 base and we switch into 3-4 also other looks js



I don't recall ever seeing lsu in a 3-4..I know they went to a 3 man front against aTm but that was 3-3-5 and 3-2-6 looks

Well, wasn't a pure 3-4 but more a zone blitz (Pittsburgh) or one-gap type 3-4. Classic example: NCG vs. Okla. DE Spears (6-4ish 300 lbs DE...definitely a 3-4 type DE) drops back in coverage which leads to pick 6.

FYI, the other DE was Hill (6-5ish 300lbs). Spears went to Dallas (3-4) and Hill to Patriots (hybrid 3-4/4-3 and other stuff). B. James, LB at LSU in 2002, is a pretty damn good 3-4 LB with Dallas. K. Williams with the Bills is doing pretty damn good with the Bills with a 3-4.
