2 words...Read Guards!
They will take you to the play every time. Buck, Trap, Waggle, Down, XB, Keep Pass, jet...all are wingt plays all guards pull. I think its the main reason the offense is dying.

As a defense, you can read the guards in any offense and they'll take you to the ball. The Wing-T is just most commonly thought of when it comes to this, because of the guards pulling all over the place.

All it takes to slow down a 3-4 and/or 3-5 team who read the guards is to have your guards influence block. That typically will slow any guard reading defense down to some extent.

As for this of you who think the Wing-T is a dying offense, we had two teams in the state finals this year who ran it (DeSales and John Hardin). Not to mention, two of Georgia's powerhouse programs run the Wing-T (Lowndes County and Cambden County).
