Someone explain this defensive formation to me please

In case anyone is wondering:

2nd and 7 at ARST 43 Johnston White run for 6 yds to the ArkSt 49
3rd and 1 at ARST 49 Johnston White run for 6 yds to the MiaFl 45 for a 1ST down

They picked up 12 of their 93 total rushing yards on 47 attempts on those two plays.

Looks like TCU style of 3-2-5 formation. Would expect to see a safety cheating closer to line of scrimmage though. Between McCord and Gunther, someone seems out of position - unless they are double teaming a jag receiver.
 
gotta blame dorito, but makes u wonder who's the guy on the field that we can count on to see and correct these things or call timeout

**** TCU only plays 10 guys on D?

People please stop saying "Its a 3-2-6"




This is our base 3-4 defense, except the 2 OLB are covering WRs
 
The **** that boggles my mind is the stance are DEs are in. How the **** are they suppose to generate an immediate pass rush if necessary? It's physically impossible. Combine that with the depth of our LBs and Ray Charles could see what kinda coverage we're running
 
Could have been a substitution problem at that point as they were causing problems with their hurry up offense. I would have to re-watch the game leading up to that play...

Against an uptempo team we're gonna call defensive timeouts every time they catch us in a bad alignment? Clearly it wasn't something they exploited throughout the entire game.

Why the **** is McCord lined up over the WR with Gunter right behind him?

That **** makes absolutely no sense.

Fincane there is no reason owens and tyriq need to line up like that.
 
Anytime you can split your DE and LB wide and put em over WRs you're creating a great matchup for your defense.

The two outside LBs are usually playing zone. They're not being asked to run step for step down the field with WRs.

STFU. The fact your trying to defend this clearly shows you dont know **** about football.

You're right. Never has an outside LB in college(oregon's LB do it all time) lined up out wide against a WR and played zone. Former big high school safeties like Owens don't ever transition to that role in college because it allows a defense to be more flexible when teams do try to speed you up. Completely foreign concept.
 
How about lining up your 250 lb defensive end as the boundary corner? Does Oregon also do that?
