Nickname for Nebraska's/Beck's Offense?

[Kiyoat Husker]

It seems as though we finally have some stability and an identity for our offense, after much experimentation over the last decade. I have two questions for the XnO guys on this board:

1. What exactly do we run? Is it a frankenstein offense with pieces from several places? How do we define it?

2. What nickname would you give it? I think the offense is stable and successful at the moment, and warrants a nickname.

1. It is an impressive blend of power/spread/no-huddle/option. Definitely unique.

2. NeBRISKa.

There it's named, lock this b!t(# up....

Frankenstein is pretty appropriate. I believe Beck usually refers to it as "multiple."

Scoring Explosion II is the best I've heard so far but that is somewhat presumptuous at this point.

Oh, and I forgot to mention:

As I was googling for an answer to my #1 quesiton, I found this funny article from October 2011 entitled: "2011 Nebraska Offense: A Confusing System you Can't Describe"

http://www.opposingviews.com/i/sports/ncaa-football/big-ten/2011-nebraska-offense-confusing-system-you-cant-describe

Some quotes:

The Nebraska offense has a severe identity crisis. It wants to be so many different things -- but doesn't do any one thing very well.

Right now, the Huskers embrace too many philosophies and don't know who they are offensively. They run a little bit of everything, but they don't do any one thing very well.

Nebraska wants to be a part-time option team. That's a recipe for failure.

Back in February, Beck said you can't be afraid to "junk everything." He's right -- but he's now running an offense that has a lot of used parts. He's cobbled together a system that asks Martinez to do far too much.

geez, I guess Michael Flood McNulty was right. What were we thinking?

Beck has described our offense as a mutt. I think that's as good a nickname as any.

Franken-steinbeck offense. Each game is an epic novel of heartbreak and/or joy.

[Kiyoat Husker]

How bout the "Indian Corn" Offense?

... I'm sure no one would be offended by that name...

 

[Kiyoat Husker]

Please tell me this goes away in a few days.

I'm sure it will. It is the first game week of the season, so a tidal wave of new threads should wash this one away.

Why do you care? Post if you want. Don't if you don't.
