New Research: Northern Colorado’s Zone Based Solution to Defending RPO’s –While some coaches have made the full transition to defending post-snap RPOs with six boxes and man coverage, the defensive staff at Northern Colorado has bought into using bracket coverage structures to defend both 10 and 11 personnel RPOs. In X&O Labs exclusive clinic report, UNCO’s safeties coach Woody Blevins details how he teaches his inside and outside bracket rules vs. 2×2 and 3×1 formations, and how he trains the eyes of conflict defenders to recognize run vs. pass.
