More and more college teams are using zone blocking schemes. I think it is a great way to eliminate a lot of the confusion created by movement along the defensive front. If you were an offensive coordinator, would you implement zone blocking techniques?Why or why not?
I guess it determines. If you have blockers that mentally know how to block and work as a team really well, then I would definitely keep man-to-man blocking. Otherwise, I would use zone blocking. I'd say there are many more things that you would have to consider when thinking about blocking.

The reason why I don't like zone blocking is because I personally think defensive coordinators would overload zones. This could definitely cause problems for the offensive line.
