In both clips, LSU was running their Dollar (3-2-6 Dime) Package. In the first clip, they bring the corner, with Cat coverage behind it (FS has the Corner's man).

In the second clip, they use a field load, and the dime backer is a dime. They do not go corner over against a Nub Set.

LSU Cover 2 Simulated Pressure Call: Sting 2 Steal.

Ultra similar to the Spurs 2 Steal 5 man pressure, Sting 2 Steal is a 4 man pressure, with the FS stealing (poaching) #2 if Y is in the core, and stealing #3 vs 3x1 open.

LSU plays slice to the boundary: Corner is the 1/2 player, jack traps the flat, backer cuts #2.

Throughout the first two games of the year, B-gap plugs have been a staple of the LSU pressure package.

[Pack @PackTalksXO]

LSU running 1 Cross from their Dollar (Dime 3-2-6) Package out of an Ox Front, with the backer away from the back becoming a spy for the QB.

You can see the eye progression difference between 1 Hole and 1 Cross here, the Down Safety looks #2 to the side of the back, then scans back to the Q, before playing off his eyes. Very similar to how you would teach a Middle Run Through Safety in Non Traditional Tampa Coverages.

LSU 2 Trap Pressure cutup: Spurs 2 Steal.

LSU, more like Georgia, and the Saban family teams, play cover 5 (man match halves) to both sides, rather than how Oklahoma or Texas A&M play 2 Trap pressures, where they play 0 to a side.

Vs 3x1 Open, the Safety steals #3 (Thief).

[Pack @PackTalksXO]

LSU Blitz Coverage call Cutup vs Clemson: Bullsnake

Snakes = Blitz Coverage (True Cover 0)
Bullsnake = Mac Blitz A + Saw Path.

The first snap is teach tape inch technique by Monsoor Delane. Pure step with his outside foot, inches back, stays patient, once the WR hips declare, he kicks to cross, gets to top shoulder, squeezes the air out of the route, gets his eyes back to ball.

[Pack @PackTalksXO]

LSU Sticky Coverage Cutup vs Clemson.

1st Clip: Ox Spy Red 1 Sticky.

LSU was setting their Shade to the back when running an Ox Front out of their Dollar package, with the backers fiddling the back. Both safeties were ratting at the sticks.

[Pack @PackTalksXO]

3 More Firezone Calls for LSU against Clemson. The first one is a Backer Bullet (Blitz Contain) Path, the second one is Chop Sprint, and the last one is Sting Sprint.

[Pack @PackTalksXO]

LSU Firezone Call Cutup: Bomb.

Weapons = Firezones with no DL droppers.
Bomb = Backer Baker Path.
Baker Path = B Gap Plug.

LSU is another team that is multiple in terms of the fronts they pair with the pressures, rather than having one front for one pressure.
