I thought there was.

When you go into the 3-4 formation aren't there variations of the 3-4 (more like a 5-2) in which the OLBs are on the line of scrimmage?

I just played online with Georgia and Jarvis Jones got down in a stance with his hand on the ground a couple of times. I don't use the 3-4 much so I cant tell with variation it is, but I can say he did do it.

The 3-4 Predator was taken out of the base 3-4 defense, but it still exists in custom playbooks. You'll just have to make a custom PB if you want the formation. (which I did)

On a related note, have you guys seen the your CPU controlled OLBs get pressure? I play on heisman and I just haven't gotten realistic results from the 3-4 as far as pass rush. Maybe I just don't have the right ratings?
