Over the years, Coach Bruich's teams have gained the knowledge necessary to successfully stop the Double Wing attack. The Double Wing Offense, which Coach Bruich feels is a 'big play' offense, includes a center, two guards, two tackles and two tight ends toe to toe at the line of scrimmage. Seven main plays evolve from this offense: fullback dive, fullback trap, power pitch, buck sweep, pitch play, reverse and the pass. The goal of the defense is to make the offense drive the football and eliminate big plays. Principles for the line, ends, linebackers and secondary are a big part of the overall philosophy of this defense. From a 5-2 set, Bruich diagrams the roles of each position. Also, each of these four groups is broken down according to rules and teaching points. Game footage illustrates the effectiveness of this defensive system against the Double Wing. A big part of the Double Wing is the passing attack and Bruich diagrams coverage against the pass, including mixing up coverage.

For over 30 years, Coach Schrader has used the 52 Monster defense with great success and now shares the theories, alignments and fronts, linebacker play, cover schemes, and blitz, stunts and special techniques for this formidable defense. The benefits of the 52 are that it covers all eight running gaps with single gap coverage, allows four rushers and seven players in coverage and can handle any formation with minor adjustments. Linebackers are the backbone of this defense, having to stop the run and the pass. In terms of cover schemes, a coach must determine the ratio of rushers to pass defenders. Secondly, players must have designated areas to defend or be assigned man-to-man responsibilities. Schrader includes game footage showing the 52 Monster that reinforces its dominance and clarifies its purpose.
