What Teams Run What Defenses?

[superman]

this is more for ncaa 09 but pertains to real life as well

i know rice runs 4-2-5, virginia 3-4

i'd like to have a list

[brat316]

Temple 4-3...but now and then a little bit of the 3-4.

[the_legend_killer]

Wisconsin runs a 4-3.

[Don Vito]

Ole Miss runs a lot of variations of the traditional 4-3, it is closer to a tampa 2 than anything. A lot of speed and blitzing.

[Sniper]

Michigan's going to run some type of hybrid 3-4 defense, I think. It's basically a 4-3, though, since the Spinner (DE/OLB hybrid) will be pretty much on the LOS.

[wicket]

ND runs a very blitz happy 4-3 defense, lot of speed both of the edges and at linebacker.

hmmmm in the game theyre a 3-4

[brat316]

3-4 defense never works in Madden or NCAA, or at least right.

I got it to work sort of, with zone blitzing mixed with over blitzing on one side.

i agree. but the game gets so easy i wanna switch it up and limit my recruiting to just players that would fit in a 3-4 or recruit extra ss's for 4-2-5.

If you control an OLB and slide the DL his way, it really works wonders. Speed rush the **** out of the OT. This is in NCAA, not Madden.

they were a 3-4 under base defense last year. this year we will switch to the 4-3

[Giantsfan1080]

Rutgers runs a 4-3.

[Hawk]

Tennessee runs the Tampa 2 I assume now, haha.

[etk]

WVU runs a 3-3-5.

TCU runs a weird defense IIRC. New Mexico as well.

Miami runs a pretty standard 4-3.

If you have Phil Steele's College Football Preview magazine you can just skip to each team and look at their depth chart. He includes abbreviations of the positions like ROV or HAWK or w/e. If you don't have it just ask me about a team and I'll look it up.
