I know for a fact Bowling Green is going to line up 4 WR's majority of the game. For the 1st time in I can't remember we have 4 CB's capable of matching up...

Oklahoma is going to do a lot of the same, probably not as much because they have Perine but their OC also likes to play 4 WR's...

Is it something where we will start in nickel, then switch to dime depending on the result on 1st down? I'm interested to see how we line up.

JMO I'd open dime against Bowling Green. Make them try to run against our front 4 (Which they shouldn't be able to)

Against Oklahoma it get's tricky. Probably have to open in nickel even if they are in 4 WR's to stop Perine. If we can dominate the LOS, and be able to play Dime, our defense could be very very nasty.
