Stacked Left Sweep

F takes the pitch and sweeps the strong-side edge behind both pulling guards.

Concept: Both guards pull left — Y kicks the force defender, C and the backside tackle reach — and F reads the kickout to turn up the alley.

How to teach it

  • 1Both guards pull the same track — kick, then wrap up through.
  • 2F presses the edge before cutting up; don't bounce early.
  • 3Y's kickout sets the corner — everything turns off it.

Common mistakes to fix

  • !F bouncing outside before the kickout is made.
  • !Backside guard running flat instead of turning up.
  • !Y logging the force instead of kicking it out.
