with Paul Chryst, University of Wisconsin Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks Coach.
Winning football games depends many times on 3rd down success. Coach Chryst unpacks the Wisconsin approach to moving the ball on third down in this lecture presentation. Chryst discusses Wisconsin's various third down packages that are classified by personnel groups, by pass pattern concepts (same plays, but different looks) and formation. Game preparation is a vital key to gain key third downs. Chryst discusses the importance of adjusting your packages according to the opponent's pressure, coverage, or your "change-up" concept. Key factors that affect the defensive plan are down and distance, personnel groupings, field position and the score and rhythm of the game. To show the philosophy in action, Chryst breaks down game footage to show how different third down packages were successful. Consistently converting on third down will keep your defense off the field and move the ball to the end zone.
