Its a lot harder to prepare for and is harder on the OL when you dont know who is going where and when
Oh, no doubt that you can dress it up all kinds of ways. You can slant and that works sometimes and sometimes it creates huge gaps for zone runs because the backside gets cut off. The bottom line though is that if you have a badass defensive line- it doesnt make a **** what you run. They are animals and will wreak havoc in anything they do. The less talented you are- the more creative you have to be.

Saban wears teams out because he has top draft picks on his def front- not because he is outscheming anybody
