Defense Strategy - Man or Zone against Lou?


Sep 28, 2016, 1:08 PM

I'm not an X's O's guy but I'm learning so I appreciate your serious replies.

Does our Defense play mostly zone or man?
Should we play man or zone vs Louisville?

I see Zone allowing our LBs and DBs to keep their eyes on Jackson should he take off however if we worry too much about that he can air it out.

On the Flip side it looks like Man defense has really worked well against us in Troy and Auburn games. However last year it looked like Louisville played very effective Zone defense against us forcing DW into 2 picks.

Shakin the southland did a six part series on this last year that is pretty insightful. Short answer is that BV runs a lot of Cover 3 so he can blitz.

I would play a 3 4 front and zone back. Bend but don't break and hold them to fg's. Our offense needs to have long drives and keep the ball for 5 minutes plus and end with 7 points.

A zone back

Cover 2 (Tampa or robber), Cover 3, Quarters, or mixed?

I just hate how vulnerable the middle of the field becomes

This goes against all of our offensive and defensive philosiphies.

Our defense is designed to make the big play and get the ball back to the offense. High risk high reward. For Lou. we need to focus this:

1) Stop the run in all forms

2) Force the QB to the left (weak side) and bring pressure

3) Play zone with LB and secondary to force him to make good throws not just air it out to 1 on 1 WRs

Offense is simple. Run the offense the way we always have and let Watson establish the running game with his feet. It will open up the passing game and provid running room for WG.

Summary:
Get pressure on the QB, make them turn the ball over, and then crush their spirt with quick strikes from the offense.

I'm playing straight man with one safety over top help on Quick...

Folks...his deep ball can be virtually non existent if you hold him to it. Stack the box...have the ends set the edge and with our fierce interior DL with strict lane assignment..it could be a very long day for LJ...

I expect we'll put 8 in the box and play man coverage.

Gotta keep LJ at home.

The definition of awesome!

Just stack the Box and make him beat us with his arm.
He is better running around in space don't let him get out the pocket and we win.

Strategy : BEAT LOUISVILLE

Jackson can light it up but as long as Clemson wins I will be a happy man. I trust Dabo, Jeff, Tony, and of course Brent

Go Tigers!!

Show zone play man vice versa. Corner blitzes. Show somethings they haven't seen on film.Offense I would spread those 4lbs out throw it to run it.Scelliot will have to be on their game go away from their tendencies because Louisville has been studying them since the spring. Big challenge.
