I breakdown interesting plays - schematically, technically, and from and execution standpoint - from the 2021 Michigan at Penn State football game.
Just the film this week, but as always, you can find links to previous films reviews for overall summaries of each team provided the tags for each post. Each team has a tag.

Michigan goes Poach coverage. Pass rush through immediately pic.twitter.com/IEdQUzzh8U

Michigan probing the D to start the 2nd half to see if double twins reduces +1 box. It does not, and isn’t the answer for Michigan.

I give a little explanation about how and why teams use personnel/formation when seeing +1 box pic.twitter.com/fISpW8h9lz
Back to 12P pin and pull, let’s you gain back box numbers by not blocking backside. Backside needs to zone to LB better to squeeze out the run thru, but one broken tackle and a big gain pic.twitter.com/3SYHb0g0CN

Drive levels. PSU LBs turn and run in coverage and drive goes big yardage. Almost like they did some scouting of the Defense (don’t take this as a criticism of PSU D, which is one of my favorites to watch) pic.twitter.com/ELwyfmcxI0

Back to pin and pull from unbalanced. Again, backside caught in the wash, and you’re blocked to the safety. Punishing the defense in the run game for playing so tight to the LOS pic.twitter.com/flrPegepWu

Great example of what I was talking on failed 4th and 2 play. PSU overloads strength but slants weakside. Michigan runs Counter OF and the RT ends his down block on the other side of the formation. Pre-snap, PSU is trying to bait you out of Strongside runs. But it’s there pic.twitter.com/OKgI4xuwpD

Nice wheel design off Counter CF action. Forcing PSU out of their great short red zone zone coverage pic.twitter.com/kQNhnukad7

Pop pass RPO near the goal line pic.twitter.com/89MIFvrlpO

Michigan back their Jam run stunt (Oscar call in Sabanese). PSU goes wham, gets defense off balance and springs a nice run pic.twitter.com/XC6DXmuEwt

PSU bluffs the check with me and picks up the 1st down pic.twitter.com/zscPdoP7L1

PSU showing screen by formation and trying to get vertical over the top. UM not fooled and coverage sack pic.twitter.com/kVTCEAjJTm

Love the formation. Don’t love the communication pic.twitter.com/7kHjQeEaG2

TE motion and then Counter OH back confuses the LB on where his run support is. Why you want the young LB playing will and veteran playing MIKE pic.twitter.com/HjiTj2xUwn

22P Down scheme. Now can zone with the Center, prevents the run thru. Get the edge and another first down pic.twitter.com/XFbY6rQvJa

Michigan isn’t in zero by the way. That’s a mistake as i forgot about the safety over the top to the offense’s left
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 18, 2021
Vs single high, the read is the OLB. Vs 2-high it’s the safety. Michigan rotates single high and therefore LB is read on the frontside glance

Stretch from Michigan. Big crease opens up. MIKE does a great job flowing then folding back, but this shows Michigan’s lack of stretch reps pic.twitter.com/SIPrgITnFP
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 19, 2021
Michigan has had issues in short yardage having defenders angle inside the TE to the three man surface. So on 3rd and short they say screw it and have a 3 and 5 man surface and blow the DL off the ball pic.twitter.com/oFGQbKxlBL

Drive levels again. I know color guy pointed to this, but Michigan really wasn’t great feeling the dig aspect of this concept. QB being sped up and some WR feel on the dig partially to blame pic.twitter.com/AB1KYJ2Q1k

Nice drop 8 change up from PSU. Cloud Cover 3 +1. Pocket starts collapsing. Hard for Michigan’s QB to hit these downfield windows pic.twitter.com/cNfX0A1Xge
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 19, 2021
In my scout, PSU ran this as a swing screen and often trap blocked the end. Here, it’s a true Toss read with the shuffle step. Interesting switch, gets them the edge pic.twitter.com/QRYseX4PNi

Really like this lead sweep into the boundary. Hard for D to win leverage and numbers pic.twitter.com/vFj9kkcoZt

Finishing up UM-PSU. Look at this glance-corner route. Yikes pic.twitter.com/pwHFEX65B9

2nd down sack for Michigan. OG presents hands without a punch, too easy for DT pic.twitter.com/9KJMMfSWhl
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 22, 2021
PSU attacked 25 a bit in run fits out of 2-high. Able to do that with all the FIB. pic.twitter.com/iXVTH3OHll

Michigan doesn’t fit Counter correctly, FS bails them out pic.twitter.com/lARyIRvIuK

Looks like Cover 1 cross to me, but could be wrong. Michigan busts, but the option route is PSU’s go to 3rd and medium pic.twitter.com/kUvalZYOTl
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 22, 2021
4th and 2. Think it’s cover 1 but if it’s Cone, something about the quad formation forced the safety to play further off. Good use of formation by PSU and nice route pic.twitter.com/sB8zyS5CmQ

PSU sequences their normal bubble screen with tunnel screen in red zone pic.twitter.com/BpIxUkPMFS

Michigan changes up the bunch check near the goal line and forces an incompletion pic.twitter.com/3nhYArx70x

PSU back to Full House backfield they ran against OSU. This time PAP off it pic.twitter.com/mXoA1QIQEe

Same 2PT play that MSU converted on Michigan. Three options, now screen, fade, draw pic.twitter.com/mJzAmIF1no

Great back-to-back plays by the DE17 for PSU here pic.twitter.com/7Od036F0Ha

Interesting chess march here. PSU tries the two high beater again, not this time pic.twitter.com/sFMYwKbLRG

Super mesh TD pic.twitter.com/P1t8RZHiwt

3rd and 2, PSU goes back to same play out of same open quads formation. Michigan in same coverage, but executed much better pic.twitter.com/qQIso5mV1C
— Space Coyote (@SpaceCoyoteBDS) November 22, 2021
Same play 4th down stop pic.twitter.com/LXHAnFCOA7
