When we played a 4-3. With 250 or less defensive ends. The good teams ran right over us. Bama ran right at our defensive ends. Our line was under sized

With the 3-4 we put three very big guys on the line. And we could compete. When we finally got a nose tackle we were mostly able to stop the run.

If we have hand in the dirt DE like Marcus Spears who weighed at least 280. That is a different story.

We didn't defend bamas rushing attack any better this year or last than we did 2009-14 with Chavis and his 240lb DEs.

The only difference this year was they couldn't keep up.
