Depaul runs Dime Defense vs run all the time? It looks like he runs a mixture of 4-3 and Dime to me.
On top of that it looks like Louisville's (Depaul's last opponent) running wasnt exactly shutdown.. the RBs averaged over 5 yds per carry.
I stand corrected.... I should have said: Runs Dime Defense vs run 'a lot' instead of 'all the time'. You're not supposed to take what I type literally!!!
Let's take a look at the numbers... This is Dime vs run only... Also, only looking at teams with a guess rating of 30 or better.
Kinda interesting... Read and React:

Why are these all over the board? Is the Dime good or bad vs the run? Why did the Dime Defense stop everyone except UNC and UConn? Uconn had a 6.58 avg with a 36 yard run. Take that away and the avg is 3.91. UNC had a 24 yard run and a 64 yard run. Those are the only 3 runs over 20 yards. Take those away and UNC has a 4.88 avg. Take all 3 away and the total avg would be 3.80.
I'm interested in both sides of argument... Does game planning mean nothing or something? Does his recruiting of players mean anything? If his team is built to stop the run... would he be any worse vs the pass? Should we look at more stats?
PS. Thanks Yatzr - I donated tonight.....
