Zone Blitzing from 3-5-3

Coach you absolutely can Zone pressure from the 3-5-3 in fact most colleges that run the defense do in fact Zone blitz like Ball State. You can zone pressure no matter what the alignment of the apposing offense is 2x2 2x1 3x1 etc...

The advantages of zone pressure are you can send any of your 11 players on any given play, You keep all eyes in the backfield for run purposes, and have the security of zone behind your pressures instead of man.

Some people will tell you it is better to 0 blitz because you can bring more pressure but you have to understand that zone pressure is used more to attack pass protections, players, a side of the offensive protection or certain run plays, not to just over load an entire protection

Ron Roberts of Delta State has begun to 6 man zone pressure it changes the underneath play of the coverage but its not a huge change.
