What Defense do you like the most?

I really like our 4-2-5 personally because to me speed kills but also we have been lucky to have Tony Conner that can play our Huskey role. Also with teams like our O we force 3-4s and 4-3s to change their D to fit our spread taking them out of their normal base D.

What are your thoughts?

4-2-5 is what most teams are running to combat the spread.

You might want to add more specifics to your question. You may not get the answer you are looking for from A&M fans.

I prefer a slight bend.

Unless a team's "base" is a 4-2-5 or 3-3-5, they are running nickel formations at least 70% of the time now. The nickel formations have become the new "base" defense.

LSU will be running a lot more 2-4-5 than 3-4 looks this year. Should be fun.

The correct answer is it depends on the down and distance. Many defensive quads move in and out of various formations frequently depending on the situation and the offense they are up against.

I'm NCAA I run a 3-4/4-2-5 primary with multid looks and formations. Even throw in some 3-3 in there to help because I can get creative with bltizes and drop backs.


Needless to say my defense is most effective with a monster D-Line.

In junior high we ran a 5-3-3 and went undefeated.


I would like to see more of that scheme outside of teams playing LSU.

I'm a 4-3 guy, but with our team this year I think 3-4 is the way to go for sure.
