Yeah this play needs to be available in every defensive formation. It should not be unique to "Nickel Normal" like it is in Madden.

You can't go wrong with this play. If they go short or deep you have it covered. Only thing is, what side of the field is he going to go short and deep on? Perfect play for 3rd and long.

Re: 25 New Plays Coming to NCAA Football 12 - Play #2: Nickel Normal Cover 6

There was a lot of just crazy good general football knowledge tossed around in this thread, I love it. The responsibilities of CB's in certain situations, whether to play inside or outside leverage based on what's over the top.

It does resemble Cloud out Nickel Strong, although (haven't played since December-ish) to my knowledge its a Cover 3 over the top, evenly split between the CB and S's. This is like somebody said a "Quarters Halves" zone. I don't remember much of different zone variations like in this play.

The problem with the zones I always thought was that the defensive player ran to the middle of their zone and stayed centered in it, they were too "tight", didn't follow WR/RB/TE's through the zone, or waited till the WR/RB/TE came to them.

Hopefully the fact that they're defensive plays means that defensive AI gets some attention, especially in zone responsibility and outside/inside leverage on man coverage.

I would agree but I think it would lead to exploits. I wouldn't be against create a playbook though.

I think it will cause exploits. I believe every offensive play in the game has been ran against every defensive play. So a user-created play would confuse the CPU a good % of the time. I am not against it at all is long as it doesnt exploit offense/defense too much.
Custom Playbook is one of my major deciding factors(Dynasty and Gameplay) for NCCA 12. I might buy regardlessly. But It would make sense to have it in with 120 ways to win last year

Very nice coverage play for 3 and long to stop the other team. Nice of them to give us new plays this year. Can't wait to see some gameplay video.
