NCAA Football 09 Offensive Tips 5/6
Calling plays from Twin formations is the simplest way to tell if your opponent is in man or zone coverage. This only works against base defenses like the 4-3, 3-4, 4-4, 46 or 5-2. If the cornerbacks line up on the same side as the twin receivers, then it is man coverage.
