What I really need in this thread is defensive help stopping USC's run game. I may have very fast DB's, but those DB's tend to not have the ability to wrap up Johnson and McKnight on pitches and sweeps. So, unless McCarthy or Bruton come over on support it's all over because both are faster than my entire defense. Defensive scheme help, please? Thanks! Andrew

Run a Nickel Strong, slant towards the way you think thy may sweep and fill the inside gap with your LB. The Strong formation will use the CB with speed more like a LB.
