I know a lot of us learn football by watching it and some of us by also actually playing it. I’ve gotten some friends into it as well and by now they know what the positions are, what the different penalties are, etc. So they are past learning the basics of college football. Now I want to start getting them up to things like being able to watch a play and spot the formation or seeing things like if a defense is really good or if the offense’s protection is just really bad (and vice versa). Or to understand if I yell about the opponent setting up an obvious passing play while our defense is setting up to protect against the run, they can see it, too.
Instead of “CFB 101” this would be like “CFB 201” or “301”. A little more advanced stuff.
The problem I have is while I can explain the basics of the game, I’m not the best at teaching these sorts of concepts. Do any of you have resources you would suggest (YouTube channels, websites, books, etc) that you would recommend for something like that?
