Week 1 Games Discussion

Herbstreit says Venables runs a lot of man but is trusting his front and running zone tonight.

I’m no expert, but isn’t Venables known for running nothing but zone?
Not sure myself. I do know I was surprised to find out that Saban's systems have been mostly zone over the years when it looks like a brutal man most of the time. The way he teaches the match-up in that zone system allows the athletes to ball out without getting out of position very often like a straight man might.
