I am not an expert on defense, but I thought the main purpose of a zone blitz is to disguise the pressure and confuse the quarterback, making it harder to go through his progression. The weakness is you have DE's and LB's in coverage. It's my understanding as well that the zone blitz is particularly susceptible against an elusive QB, for those reasons.

Nothing is complex about the zone blitz. You sound like those NL baseball purist dorks who think the double switch is some great complicated strategy.
It's meant to disguise pressure and confuse QB reads. Problem is both the "zone" and the "blitz" are susceptible to our designed lateral throws and screens.

Fairly accurate. We have a watered down zone blitz package that we use though. We used it some against LSU, and it was very successful. Secondly, I think Kenny hill has only rushed for around 125 yards this season, so im not too worried about him beating us with his legs

I was more worried about Arkie as well.... then Ole Miss. Not to take anything away from state. LSU was win was very impressive. But for a variety of reasons I don't see us losing against State.
