ok so after making a change to a 4-2-5/4-4 hybrid with a base set of plays i have held Bama, Stanford, and TAMU to under 50...
come out in 4-2-5 Normal Cover 3 as base, set an audible to 4-4 2 Deep and another to 4-4 Crash Gold
i am spreading DL and crashing (making sure to flip the play so that the Crash Gold blitz comes from the side the HB is on... then use the ILB that is bitzing to plug the hold of the give (using Option Aggressive to take QB)
the 2 deep covers some pass well, but that is your downhill stopper as it was in years past
i also have 4-2-5 Okie Across Bullets Double B and make sure to not press gives your DB's to jump those pass routes... if facing a mobile QB contain 1 DE and manually blitz a LB away from him to contain manually and bring heat
i also have Smokes from 4-2-5 Normal and will swap up between that and SS Eagle Zone so that the Dogs both blitz and one gives me zone behind it
: 4-4 - 2 Deep
: 4-2-5 Normal - Smokes (can use this or that 4-4 Crash Gold)
: 4-2-5 Normal - SS Eagle Zone
: 4-2-5 - Max Zone
: 4-2-5 Okie Across - Bullets Double B
so far that is keeping any run game i face in check... i have give up completely on any of my old 3 man front stuff... i still face a bad assignment here and there, but quick adjustments take care of it... also i base align about every formation even when its man to bait mostly but more to discourage the running game
