When Virginia Tech plays Duke on Friday night (7 ET, ESPN/ESPN App), Foster will coach his 282nd game as the Hokies' defensive coordinator. The whistle blows, the players un-pile and the cycle starts again. Period. TKP, where you get the analysis and the analysis of the analysis by the original analyst, "Why gobble gobble chumps asks such good questions, I will never know." Next week, we will examine some of the basic blitz packages that the Hokies use for passing down and distance situations. Down and distance is fairly obvious. pretty heavy on stunts and exchanges between the DL and LBs, Clemson Basketball Travels to NC State with Last Hope of NCAA Berth on the Line, Clemson Softball roars to fast start and high rankings. Many defenses set the alignment of their players based on sides of the ball (ie, left and right) or formation strength (ie, which side the TE is on). The "G" front is a 4-man Even front that covers both OGs with DTs, and is heavy on stunting. Am I getting overconfident that we'll be able to better compete with Clemson this year based on the following assumptions: from Clemson beat writer Greg Wallace via Andy Bitter: http://hamptonroads.com/2012/06/ask-another-teams-beat-writer-clemson. Youll see how they get away with that in coverage later. The DB's align based on secondary alignment rules. The design of the defense is set up to allow the Mike, Whip, or Stud DE to make the play. The opinions of the author(s) on this site are independent and no way reflect the opinions of the Virginia Tech administrators, coaches, staff, or athletes. From all of us at The Key Play, get off the bench and in the game. The below diagram lays out a typical Hokie run blitz utilized to stop the zone run to the strong side out of an I formation. Clemson and Duke are really the only teams I can remember that have attacked Hokie corners and been successful. When things went well, a Hokie game featured numerous sacks, tackles for losses, interceptions, and the band wearing out the theme from Empire Strikes Back. Virginia Tech uses both their base look (which features each lineman and linebacker having gap responsibility for the gap in front of them) or a more radical stunting approach based on the talent Foster has available. There are a number of factors that the coaches consider when setting the defense from play to play. It also put the Whip and Rover in better positions to be successful. Privacy Policy | Terms of Use. But I don't think we put enough pressure on them either due to match ups on the front line and some weaknesses in coverage, both due to injuries. One breakdown or miscommunication and the other team could be in the end zone. How does pressure relate to coverage? "My advice to you is to start drinking heavily. Virginia Tech defensive coordinator Bud Foster, who announced Thursday he would be retiring at the end of this his 33rd season, is the longest continually tenured assistant at the same school in . From this base set, the Hokies can play any number of man and zone coverages while still getting to an 8-man front on any play by rotating the Rover up closer to the line of scrimmage just prior to the snap. It was a pro-style system and designed to work against pro-style offenses, which is precisely what the Hokies system is. The Hokies showed a blitz up front, and Jayron showed a cover 3 look by bailing out and back pedaling before the snap. If the blitz didnt get to the QB quickly, then the defense was at risk for a big play. It is a scheme that looks complicated, but yet is very simple. Likewise, the End, Backer, Boundary Corner, and Rover always align toward the short side of the field. So, they would use multiple tight ends to the strong side, then motion one of those tight ends back to the whip side. The wide side is called the field and the short side is called the boundary. This often creates the illusion to the running back that there isn't backside pursuit, making the backside cutback to the 1 gap the logical place to go. However, what VT does is very different from TCU and here well showcase the fronts and coverages VT likes the most. I think I understand the step 45 because I believe I saw an example of that when Urban Meyer was analyzing our DL a few years back. Billy Hite. Note- things I was wrong about when I started this off: A) Backer is to the boundary. If he went out, Rover has him. A similar thing happened with the game against Miami, where LM just gashed us in the second half. The "Nose" and "Tackle" are the two defensive tackles in Bud Foster's defense and are generally interchangeable, meaning that on any given play, either defensive tackle can be the "Nose" or the "Tackle". Using a series of hand signals, Bud Foster communicates the defensive call (set, blitz call, passing strength, coverage, etc) to the players on the field. So complimenting it with the Bear front gives you the choice of going Even or Odd with a stem (pre-snap shift). Where and how they play, and personnel types preferred, are highly scheme dependent. I admit, I got chills when I read Charley Wiles bullet on defensive line play: "Feet in neutral zone by the time the ball disappears into centers crouch.". Worilds was moved to OLB and by the accounts of Steelers insiders, has struggled with the transition to a 3-4 look. He had to use less of the C2R and more Cover 4. Our DL has way more play making responsibility in the run game than a traditional 4-3 where at least 2 of the linemen are expected to eat double blocks and free up the linebackers. How do those pieces fit together and how do they work collectively to form one of college footballs best defenses? Also, because of the rather shorter depth of the Safeties, you can attack their run reads directly with a vertical route directly at them, like a Post or Go route up the seam. The S must loop hard play-side, crossing the face of the tight end without allowing himself to get his outside shoulder blocked by the tight end. I have had some great question both here and on twitter about some of the nuances of the defense. . Take the shortest route to the ball and arrive in bad humor. http://hamptonroads.com/2012/06/ask-another-teams-beat-writer-clemson. getting after it down the LOS once it was clear the RB was not going for his gap. Never forget Aaron Rodgers literally laughing at our defense. Because the line is flowing play-side, the Whip should be unblocked and should go directly to the ball-carrier. VTs version of defense is a morphed descendent of what the Washington Huskies ran in the 80s and early 90s when their defense dominated the Pacific coast under DC Jim Lambright. If NFL type DT's wouldn't fit BF's scheme then what's the use of trying to recruit guys like an Andrew Brown? Its a bit like a Tampa 2 defense, where the MLB drops back deeper in zone over the middle with 2 safeties behind, except that here youre dropping the FS down instead of backing up the MLB. Often, a zone play to the right (which on a Madden diagram looks like it would go to the 6 gap) will actually cut back almost over the center. The end result of this 1st quarter play against UVA features Tyrell Wilson preventing the back from getting to the edge, the nose and tackle slant and fill their gaps, and Jack Tyler flies in on the blitz to make the play. Foster has been at Virginia Tech for 30 years and has been the coordinator for 12 seasons. He retained the terminology and many of the blitz schemes of the Attack Defense, and then moved the rover position back to that of a traditional strong safety. Fosters defense is always going to be well-coached, and being well-coached puts players where they need to be, but you still need some talent to beat better OLs even if the defenders are where they need to be. The strongside End, called a "Stud", aligns over the inside of the TE (7 technique) and the other DE aligns in a 5-technique. Tech often checks out of 4 into their version of straight Man, called a Cover 6 package, but it maintains the C4 look. Normally, it will be one of the linebackers that will communicate any adjustments to the defensive front call or blitz call. Every defensive player in the front seven has a "gap" responsibility in every defense that is called. Several things are known at the end of the first play game situation, down and distance and ball position. Bud Foster's defense held the Tigers to 186 yards of total offense in a 24-7 route. The Chargers' defense ranked last in third-down conversion percentage (49.54%), 30th in rushing yards allowed per game (138.9), 30th in points allowed per game (27.0) and 23rd in yards allowed . I remember the first half of the Stanford OB and watching one of Stanford's 300 lb guards kick out and just flatten Eddie Whitley. The Hokies defense requires the DL to essentially "tie up" blockers and hold gaps. To the uneducated eye, the defense features two ends, two tackles, three linebackers, two safeties, and two corners just like a traditional NFL style 4-3, but Foster turns the 4-3 concept on its ear. It's no secret that Tech uses a lot of "hybrid" type players. It wasn't ideal. When Frank Beamer coached under Bobby Ross, they ran the Wide Tackle 6, and he took that with him to VT. I would go so far as to say Miami was the worst defense the Hokies played all year. Have no idea how that played into Foster's defense, but he has played and started taller more slender DTs. Thanks!

See Tim Tebow (or Pat White at WVU.) A "Bear" front covers both OGs and the Center, making it an Odd front. As for NFL caliber lineman. Spoilers). The Rover aligns to the passing strength pre-snap, so hell adjust to the slot WRs most of the time. Gap fit means when the defensive player hits the assigned gap, he must hold that gap maintaining the proper leverage in order to get off a block and make a tackle. From a fans perspective, it is easy to see that football is very challenging physically its arguably the most physical of any sport in the world. Instead he will look to plant and dive straight ahead for the inside of the 6 gap or the 4 gap, or he will plant and cut back to the center gap. When fans get their first glimpse of the Hokies this spring, they will see a huge degree of Bud Foster influence in Brent Pry's defensive scheme. http://www.playbookexchange.net/playbooks/Defense/02060201-VirginiaTechAttack.pdf. 3. As for tight ends, teams that play tight ends usually end up with the rover or free safety covering them. I think the weakness that was exposed by Clemson is that if a team can set up play action by running the ball effectively, the whip and the safeties have to cover their gap fill responsibility before reacting to a pass route. . We play three different packages: G, T u f f and FD/ST-G. Our G package is our base defense. It depends on which version of the 4-3. k_~k=: .qNgR\T0A$wcfXoMe#:!v2W}\;Kfva%VSc~s{A?dtpq) g~u+c\8h{ ]KKCz/H-\XH/c&4]#T{*]k0:}M &i$kj? [=?_. From what I've heard, a lot of the negative recruiting emphasizes that in Tech's defense a DE or OLB (Whip), for example, isn't a traditional NFL DE or OLB. f endstream endobj 9 0 obj 55 endobj 6 0 obj << /Type /XObject /Subtype /Image /Name /I1 /Filter /DCTDecode /Width 32 /Height 27 /BitsPerComponent 8 /ColorSpace /DeviceGray /Length 7 0 R >> stream Virginia Tech. So, what does it look like when a Hokie fails to control a gap? Not adjusted to the offensive formation. "-John Blutarsky. Ultimately, we will see Maddy and Derek Hopkins starting, with Marshall coming in for Maddy on most passing downs. If he comes inside, Backer takes him. -Bud Foster. When they face 21/22/12 personnel, theyll set up in the G front or Bear front most of the time. The result of these adjustments is a scheme that has proven to be more effective against the current trend of spread formation, passing-oriented offenses. When the TE switches sides, usually the Backer flips spots with MIKE to cover him. Morris, who was a first time starter, had thrown quick 5-7 yard hooks against the Hokie blitz all day. The Mike will likely be unblocked, but the running back should flow directly to him, so the Mike essentially has responsibility for the 1 gap. Backer: The Backer (Tariq Edwards) lines at the same depth as the mike but in the guard tackle gap. Odds & lines subject to change. BTW, I dont think I've ever seen a gif used as a legit educational tool and not just an lol. It really is an outlier as far as defenses, as much as Paul Johnson's wishbone is on offense. I think we played less aggressive which led to Clemson eventually winning. This is absolutely an attacking defense where every player is expected to #1 maintain leverage/control their gap responsibility and #2 attack attack attack the ball carrier. The players have to be extremely strong, tough and physical and they have to enjoy full force contact against other guys that are just as big, just as strong, and just as tough. Hopefully he has a breakthrough year. Winslow and the defensive end (JR. Collins) to an X stunt, with Collins going outside and JWG taking the inside (or #5) gap. But the biggest thing is probably the QB ability to react quickly to the pressure (a key part of the Hokie D). This book features Bud Foster, Defensive Coordinator at Virginia Tech; Chris Ash, Co-Defensive Coordinator, Ohio State; Mickey Matthews, former Head Coach at James . The running back will see that the Stud has contain, and will not look to pull a "David Wilson" and make a break for the 8 gap. There are a ton of details that are critical for the defense to execute properly. The consistent 3 stripes on white was a good look. I think they are well coached. Either way we'll have 3 starting quality DT. Backers and Mikes must be adept at timing blitzes and taking on blocks. Last year's defense was an incredible patchwork of adjustments, alignments, schemes and calls designed to hide our defense's weaknesses and it worked in 11/13 games. I played in the pre-2004 VT defense in HS at Westfield which was also a popular defense with Oakton/Robinson and I guess now South County which has Bendorf. Watching film of South Carolina against Clemson, South Carolina absolutely manhandled the Clemson OL, the same OL that manhandled the Hokies in the 2nd half of the ACC CG. Such a menacing look. Jack Tyler can't cover a rock, so CBF adjusts his schemes and defensive calls to account for that. To counter these offensive trends, Bud Foster made some adjustments to the base defense after the 2003 season. When Fuller took over whip, it seemed like that balance flipped, with the Whip finishing on more blitzes and the Mike not filling up the pass-rush stat column as much. I think we have had these super talented CB's the past few years but what happens when somebody gets hurt and we have to go to the bench like when Hosley got hurt last year? Cover 4 is technically a zone defense, but plays like M2M and often ends up looking just like the normal Cover 2 youre used to visualizing. Meanwhile, passing downs allow the Hokies to easily switch the whip for a nickel back. Because of how it is designed, it is still strong with Safeties as run-gap fillers off the edges, but because of that they are susceptible to play-action moreso than a true C2 squad. Young guy like Ekanem and Farley, based on film, are perfect fits. Terms at draftkings.com/sportsbook. When they play 46 front, its mostly man/man, because its a pressure front like the Under we use. I love that article. Bud Foster keeps Virginia Tech opponents guessing with ability to adjust on defense After Virginia Tech upset No. The stud end is outside eye of the tackle strong side, and the end is outside eye of the tackle on the weakside. While he misses the tackle, he allows enough time for the other players to secure their gap and then pursue to tackle the UVA tailback for a marginal gain. Instead of taking on offensive linemen as a run stuffing linebacker, he was used more to play containment or run blitz off the edge. Speaking of personnel groups and formations, have you ever wondered what Bud Foster and Charley Wiles are doing with all the hand signals between plays? 2) In a one gap 4-3, the DL wants to get up field and make plays. Excellent Hokies like Xavier Adibi, Chris Ellis, and Jonathan Lewis have barely had a look. The legendary defensive coordinator stepped away after the 2019 season, but his . Also, stud 6'6 265 DE's who want to play in the NFL, not tie up linemen so linebackers make plays. The amount of zone and safe coverages they play really is determined by the ability of the line, mike, and backer to stop the run. The same thing happens for Mike and Whip. You get what you get with Bud Foster, there isn't much grey area in his persona. Otherwise (because the linebackers don't immediately scrape and pursue to the ball) there will be large holes and tremendous pressure on safeties to make the tackle. Most of the time, there is a safety/LB hybrid that is dropped into the box to create a true 8 man front. The 4-2-5 Defense Study (Softcover: 145 pages) . couple that with (hopefully) some VERY strong dline recruits panning out, and landing dhand and/or brown next year, and it seems as if our defense is only going to get better and better, French-- in your opinion what position in the front 7 is the most important for a successful tech D.

In the above play, Jayron Hosley backpedals to his deep third at the snap. In the nineties, many teams tried to emulate Frank Beamer and defensive coordinator Bud Foster's scheme, with its premium on defenders stacking the line to either stop the run or scare the offense into abandoning it and apologizing for having considered such a silly idea. In other words, without changing the base personnel, it was a scheme that could adjust play to play from a run stopping 8-in-the-box set to a strong pass stopping set with five defensive backs (Whip, Rover, Field Corner, Boundary Corner, Free Safety). Stud End (Tyrell Wilson): Pre-Snap, the S end lines up outside eye of the boundary side tackle. He can have a SS build and sometimes aligns deeper, like the FS. Love the in-depth analysis. Tackle: The Tackle (Derrick Hopkins) lines up as a 3 technique, outside eye of the backside guard. While they are both still hybrid type players, their responsibilities are more confined. The offense makes the next move by setting their personnel group for this example, they have just removed one of their two running backs and sent in a second tight end.

The Hopkins brothers, Maddy, and looking back at Barry Booker, Jonathan Lewis, and others all sort of fit that mold. Hopkins was hurt slanting if I remember correctly. In an obvious passing down. The idea is the front 6 align based on front alignment rules. Because he lines up so close to the LOS, he has to be really good with his backpedal fundamentals to be successful, but in 2-Robber he has the flat zone strong. Instead of slanting as much (because his DL had a tendency to lose gap control and his backer couldn't figure out how to be in the correct place), Bud reverted back to shooting gaps. Shop fresh Hokies gear at TKP sponsor Homefield. Were tallish and relatively lean. In the old 4-4, the rover was always opposite to the whip. In addition to these types of coverage adjustments, there may be front and pressure adjustments made by the defense as well. They do not run blitz as much with him in the lineup, however he is used just as much on mike dog pass blitzes (at points he was their most dangerous pass rusher as a blitzer last year.).
