READ

The coach's read

SHELL AIgrounded in the numbers above

KEY 01

Plan for a true 50/50 offense. Rutgers runs 50.4% and passes 49.6% for the game, so do not shade your front or your coverage toward one side of the ball on neutral downs. Stay disciplined in your run-pass fits on first down, where they run 54.1% of the time, but never give up the quick pass by over-pursuing the run.

KEY 02

Second and long is a passing situation, full stop. They throw it 70.1% of the time in that down and distance. Get into your nickel call and rush with purpose on second and long, because if you hold them there you put them in a third-and-long spot where they convert only 42.6% of the time overall. Third and long is also a pass at 70.4%, so match coverage depth to the sticks and trust your rush.

KEY 03

Third and short is a run at 72.5%, and in the red zone they run 56.4% of the time. Those two numbers overlap in the most critical areas of the field. Load the box and win short-yardage leverage in both spots. Their overall PPA per play sits at 0.21, which is above the threshold for a productive offense, but their first-down PPA is only 0.11, meaning they are not consistently winning the line of scrimmage early. Force them into predictable down-and-distance situations and stay sound.

Bottom lineRutgers is a balanced, methodical offense with real production numbers but limited explosiveness at 12.4%. Make them one-dimensional by winning first-down run fits, then eliminate the third-down conversion at 42.6% by getting off the field on second down.
