25 New Plays Coming to NCAA Football 12 - Play #12: Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2


Over the next few weeks, EA Sports will show 25 new plays that you will find in NCAA Football 12.

New offensive plays will be shown every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, while a new defensive play every Tuesday and Thursday. Each new play will be accompanied by a screen of the play art and a brief description of why the play has been added to NCAA Football 12.

Play #12 features the Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2.

Quote:
"Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2 – Nickel 2-4-5 Slant Zone 2 - From a coverage standpoint is a standard 2 deep, 4 under fire zone pressure. The play calls for the two inside linebackers in the 2-4-5 formation to move to each side of the formation to show blitz. Combined with the pre-snap movement of the nickel cornerback, remaining linebackers, and both defensive tackles, the play gives the look of an “exotic” blitz scheme in which any combination of the players could blitz."

intriguing. wonder if this means there will pre-snap movement as part of the play call, instead of random movement or the standard d-line and LB shifts? would be cool to see how it plays out.

There seems to be more DL stunts in NCAA plays this year.. I hope this is the case in Madden as well..

wait, does that mean pre snap movement that actually works with the play? instead of random movement? intriguing.

Bottom line, if they don't improve on zone coverage in a big way, this and many other plays will basically be useless.
