Charlotte Bunch Offense

Elitee's Day One scheme for College Football 27
Created by Elitee
The exact Bunch offense Elitee is running on day one of CFB 27. One formation out of the Charlotte playbook. Four audibles, five route concepts, and the reads that beat zone, match, and Cover 3. Set it up in minutes and score all season.

Learn This First
Beating The Switch Stick
Every concept in this scheme attacks the same weakness. Learn the read once and every play gets easier.
  • Switch sticking is harder in CFB 27. Routes that sit between zones force your opponent to switch early or give up the catch.
  • If they switch early, the streaks over the top come open. If they sit deep, the underneath routes are free money.
  • The first read on almost every play is the running back. His stock routes break faster than hot routed versions.
  • Aggressive catch the sit routes so your receiver works back to the ball and it cannot get knocked out.

Core Concepts

The Scheme
4 Plays

Four concepts, one Bunch formation. Each card has the exact setup, the adjustments, and the full breakdown video.

Easy Zone Beater
Set Up
  1. 1Call Crossers from Gun Bunch (audible 1). Best against any zone. Put it away against man.
  2. 2Leave R1 on his stock crosser. It runs shallower than a hot routed crosser and is much harder to switch stick.
  3. 3Streak Square, drag X, return route on Circle.
  4. 4First read is the RB flat. His stock break is almost instant, so you can throw it right away for catch and run yards.
  5. 5Zones sink deep: take the return route for easy yards. Zones bite down: the crosser sits in the soft spot behind them.
Adjustments
  • Flip it: streak R1, slant X, return route on Circle. Now the left crosser works behind a slant plus flat high low.
  • If they switch stick early to the crosser, the streaks over the top come open.
