Dominate the Super Bowl

Strategy, countermeasure—

Orgeron and Saban, the two head coaches, engaged in a tactical duel, but this time the seasoned Saban had the upper hand. Taking advantage of two consecutive ground advancements, he created an opportunity using quick short passes concealed as fake runs, seizing the initiative.

The Tigers Defense Squad immediately realized that the Crimson Tide Storm's offense seemed to be breaking through, causing their reaction speed to lag and vulnerabilities to emerge.

However!

But!

After enduring the grind of the first half, the Tigers Defense Squad also faced a severe test. True gold is not afraid of fire, and the tactics ingrained in them had a quick secondary response. Riley immediately charged forward.

Li Wei.

In Riley's eyes, there was only Li Wei, firmly remembering his task. The tricks and smoke bombs had not fully deceived him.

Step forward, sprint, a tiger descending the mountain.

Riley had completely locked onto Li Wei, and with two big steps, he had already sprung forward to pounce, a flash of surprise in his pupils. They had uncovered the Crimson Tide Storm's different smoke bomb attempts with this tactic in the first half, and this time was no exception; he would tackle Li Wei, just as before.

—Bang!

A figure burst out from Riley's left side, blocking him mid-tackle with the force of a truck collision, flipping Riley off balance with a mountainous force, the surging centrifugal force flinging his body away.

Riley: …

What happened?

In sports, situations change in the blink of an eye; even a slight hesitation or doubt in start-up speed could alter the situation. The Crimson Tide Storm's quick short pass for cover hadn't changed Riley's motion but created a moment of stupor, and then—

Tight End Howard, with calculated ease, successfully executed a block.

Riley was directly hit and sent flying by Howard.

The Tigers' first barrier to stopping Li Wei disappeared.

The field closed up, Orgeron's heart contracted: bad news, the first gate controlling Li Wei's explosive speed failed, and the pressure on the Tigers Defense Squad instantly intensified.

Indeed, that was the case.

Li Wei moved laterally, relying on Howard's cover, and with a flick to the right, a clear path of five to seven yards opened up in front of him, completely empty, a plane could take off.

Sprung from the ground, step forward, sprint.

In an instant, Li Wei's continuous powerful steps burst his speed out like a gust of wind, moving forward vertically, accelerating within two to three steps.

Brain, stay calm.

Vision, stay clear.

Li Wei hadn't forgotten the continuous struggle of hitting walls in the entire first half. Even though they had opened the first gate, the Tigers Defense Squad surely had contingency plans. He couldn't be complacent; he had to seize every hard-earned opportunity.

Sure enough!

To the right, another figure appeared, none other than Cornerback Tre'Davious White from the Tigers Defense Squad, stepping forward very promptly.

Speed up.

Bend at the waist.

Li Wei didn't slow down; instead, he increased his speed, bending his waist to the left to dodge White's attempt to disrupt and pressure him with both hands.

Whoosh.

The howling gale brushed past, and from the corner of his eye, Li Wei could see White's clumsy, staggering figure falling behind, stirring up a storm in his wake.

On the left, Beckwith and Adams were approaching rapidly, one after the other.

During the first half, Li Wei had advanced some yards, but Tiger's second and third lines of defense quickly followed up, cutting off Li Wei's path to further breakthroughs; this time, Beckwith and Adams were no exception.

The difference was, this time Li Wei's speed had fully picked up.

Catching a glimpse in his peripheral vision, Li Wei didn't avoid them but collided head-on with Beckwith.

Beckwith thought Li Wei was repeating an old trick, and he was immediately ready to endure the collision and withstand the strong confrontation, slowing down his speed and lowering his center of gravity, sidestepping with a shoulder push.

However, the expected collision didn't come.

Beckwith: Huh?

A gust of wind flashed before his eyes, a whirling twist, as gentle as a tornado brushing across his face, yet in the next second, it had swept past his left side.

Graceful, agile, and fluid.

This was the spectacular performance of Li Wei throughout this NCAA season.

Beckwith didn't even have the time to cry out before his body was already thrown out, without sustaining any impact, his center of gravity lost its balance, and instinctively, he reached out his left hand, trying to grasp that fleeting figure.

Alas. Read latest stories on empire

Raising his leg, leaping, continuing to high-step, Li Wei seemed to have eyes on his back, the ongoing changes in his footsteps made Beckwith miss his target.

The green grass magnified in his pupils. Beckwith only managed to glance at it. Adams was closing in, and Li Wei recklessly threw himself into the lion's den, evidently running out of strength to change direction again. It seemed like the outcome was no longer in doubt.

Beckwith rejoiced, then a roaring noise filled his ears.

Li Wei indeed had no strength left to change direction.

After forcing two direction changes and using high steps to shake off Beckwith's interference, both his center of gravity and speed were in a state of flux, unsustainable.

Stumbling, Li Wei just crashed into Adams's embrace.

So, just like the countless attempts in the first half?

No.

Of course not.

Pushing off the ground, pushing off the ground again, continuously pushing off, Li Wei was not only not surrendering, but his calves exploded with power, unreservedly releasing the remaining energy in his body, accelerating as he hurled himself into Adams's embrace.

The same trick again?

Was Li Wei planning to deceive Adams with the same move he used on Beckwith?

This time, however, Adams was prepared and had already moved to collide with Li Wei before he could take a step.

A leap, a grab, a collision!

Bang!

A loud noise.

Li Wei and Adams collided.

However, one could see Adams flying out like a kite with its string cut.

Aha!

The entire field gasped in shock.

But instead of avoiding, Li Wei met Adams head-on in a collision, but he braced with his left hand, performing a Straight Arm Block upon contact, and instantly exerted force.

Everyone knows about the NCAA's highest honor, the Heisman Trophy, but few notice that the pose of the Heisman Trophy, is the iconic action of John Heisman holding the ball and finishing a block with a Straight Arm Block.

This, indeed, is one of the souls of football.

Adams collided; Li Wei exerted force.

Both players were trying to take the initiative, trying to exert force first. This time, Li Wei got there first—

The Straight Arm Block, not just for support, but also combined the weight and power from above in the collision.

His teeth clenched, fully erupting.

"Power VS Power."

Li Wei instantly broke through head-on in a brute-force manner, overturning Adams.

Adams's shoulder took a heavy hit, lost balance, and his body was thrown off, panic and fear swirling in his eyes. However, his body lost control, spinning rapidly like a top, a brilliant halo of light dispersing forcefully in a tempest, with nothing but a roar.

Boom.

A muffled sound exploded between Li Wei and Adams, blood surged and the earth shook.

Then,

a solid, copper wall that had staunchly blocked the Crimson Tide Storm was finally forcefully broken through, much like ice breaking, and the heavy solid iron arm opened up.

A sliver of light fell, and a whole new world was slowly unfolding before his eyes, limitless vistas just ahead.

At last!

Li Wei could see that splendid and magnificent scene on the distant horizon.
