Getting an Edge on the Blitz
by Clayt BirminghamDefensive Coordinator, Emporia State University
This
past season at Emporia State University we finished with a 9-3 record
ending our season with an overtime win in the Mineral Water Bowl.
Our defense is based out of the 4-2-5 set. Our defensive philosophy
with the eight-man front is to stop the run while having an aggressive
blitz package. One of our most efficient blitz packages this past
season has been our edge blitz game.
