Hi.
I have tried to run the zone read ("QB Choice") and the triple option with a few teams. My problem is, I know I'm supposed to read the unblocked DE, however, my line always blocks him. I have tried this with a few teams (e.g. Florida, Navy) but the DE gets blocked so I have no one to read. It takes all the fun out of it. I have watched several youtube videos of people showing how to run the zone read and you can clearly see in those examples the DE either staying or crashing the RB. It just never seems to happen for me.
I tried running the QB Choice out of shotgun and the Triple Option in the flexbone against a 4-3, cover 2 zone defence. Is the DE only left unblocked for certain defensive fronts? Am I supposed to set the line or direct their blocking somehow to leave the DE unblocked? Do I have to change the slider on the defensive awareness?
I should mention that I am playing NCAA 09. Was it a problem with the 09 game? I am giving it a trial run to see if I should get NCAA 12 and the only reason I'd get the game is to be able to play the option, zone read and triple option in particular.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
