The UCLA run defense ranked 9th in the nation in 2006, finishing over 100 spots higher than the year before. Coach DeLoach presents an inside look at how that impressive change came about. A main principle to the UCLA defense is to secure the perimeter of the defense. By putting the Sam back in the force position on the tight end side is key to starting your defense. Safeties are lined up 10 yards deep and their technique is flat foot read. A main focus is reading the backs to determine the play entry and blocking schemes. Reading this triangle is important for the linebackers and the safeties. DeLoach presents his alley rules for safeties. Force is the number one thing in the alley, meaning the run is turned back in by the first man on the play. The safety should never have a run/pass conflict. DeLoach also includes passing tools for the safties to use that help them in the run game. Using game footage, DeLoach effectively illustrates different coverages.

Coach Slade enters his seventh season on the UT coaching staff and continues turning out some of the nation's best defensive secondary units. Slade's 2000 and 2001 secondary units established school season records with 64 and 72 passes broken up, respectively. The Vols have batted down no fewer than 61 passes in the three years since. In this DVD, Slade discusses basic defensive football using the Cover 8. In this scheme, the safeties are independent and are responsible for calling coverages. A key focus is to stop the run first. Slade makes use of diagrams to illustrate the Cover 8, called "Adjust." The corners are 8 yards off the line of scrimmage and have the option to bump and run. Coverages by the safeties are Shoot/Read, Cloud/Read, Cloud/Cleo and Cleo/Shoot. Trips, Double and Split are different looks that match up with the alignment of the offense. Game footage shows different coverages such as shoot call, read call, 2 check and Cloud call. This DVD provides various looks and coverages out of the Cover 8.
