- Western Michigan running Quads vs. a Y-off formation by North Texas. Nickel "travel" into the boundary (passing strength). With a TE attached to the box, the Field Safety can play vision instead of "Trix" (Poach). --
- Western Michigan running Quarters (Trix) vs. North Texas. The backside Safety is playing "Trix" (Poach), isolating the boundary CB. --

- Super Bowl LX is a clash of styles. The "Zombie" Patriots: They ugly-won their way here. Can they survive one more week? The "Darkside" Seahawks: A fully operational efficiency machine. We break down the matchup + react to the wild coaching carousel on the new Let's Talk Ball! Links below. ...
- Another Western Michigan CB Half-Field Zone pressure vs. North Texas. --
- Maye's escape ability will be on full display (again) in the Super Bowl vs. the Seahawks. Seattle has an elite Pressure%. Deep Ball accuracy & scambles will be key for the Patriots in this one. Read Now! | www.matchquarters.com/p/chalk-last... --
- Western Michigan running a Safety "trail" Fire Zone vs. North Texas. This path also appears in the Chargers & Seahawks playbooks. Seattle used this "inside" path concept more than the Chargers, who featured Derwin James off the edge as their main secondary attack. --
- Western Michigan blitzing the CB vs. North Texas. Half-Field Zone behind, meaning the "away" side is playing Quarters while the blitz side mans up. The Chargers mainly used Derwin James as their secondary blitzer. Will be interesting to see if this shows up in LA in '26. --
- Georgia with an "Inside" path Hot Blitz vs. Alabama. Inside: Two inside the DE (Cop) instead of a traditional "NCAA" Fire Zone path. HOT = EYES in Georgia's language. --

- Georgia running Penny (5-1) with a TON stunt vs. Alabama's Power Read. --
- I get questions about running a Boss (Load) Front on standard downs. Here's an example of Texas Tech running a Load Front to the RB. BYU is running a Spinner Boot & pulls the RG. The Center can't get to the 4i & the play results in a fumble. --

- Texas Tech running an "NCAA" Fire Zone path, but running a hard trap 2-Steal coverage behind it. 2-Steal sends the back side Safety into the Seam front side. CB has a "hard" trap and eliminates the RB Flare Screen. --
- Texas Tech fitting a Counter GY Lead from BYU. DE David Bailey (31) is crashing the edge, forcing the pullers to log deeper in the backfield. Keeps the LBs clean to the ball...💥 --
- Tulane running a Mike Creeper (Cover 3) vs. North Texas' Empty formation. Green Wave are in an Under Front & the 5t to the field works to the face of the RT setting the Mike up. --
- Tulane running a TON stunt to the RB in their Tite Front vs. North Texas. --
