cb1954 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Added a new page. You see a lot of fools who think 2001 Miami was better than 1995 Nebraska. 2001 Miami vs 1995 Nebraska Quote Link to comment
bleedNUred Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The argument for the Hurricanes is so weak but hey not everyone will agree, there's ALWAYS doubters. Quote Link to comment
typ3kal Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 The argument for the Hurricanes is so weak but hey not everyone will agree, there's ALWAYS doubters. I thought the best team was 2004 USC!?! See: Herbie & Corso via ESPN Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt316 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Not bad, may want to change one thing though. You stated "NU rarely ran a true triple option." In fact Nebraska NEVER ran the triple option. In Nebraska's offense the fullback was never a QB option, any time the fullback touched the ball it was a designed play for him to do so. The only time a Nebraska QB had more than the pitch/keep option in the 90's was on an option pass play. Quote Link to comment

Many people think (wrongly) that the QB being able to keep the ball, pitch to a trailing back, or dropping back to throw is the triple option. LINK Quote Link to comment

He's saying that what appeared to be a triple-option, that is, the quarterback had three options (fullback, himself or runningback getting the ball), that in fact the play was either already designed to go to the fullback (one option), or it was designed to be a double option with the quarterback and runningback.

irafreak Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I was watching the 96 fiesta bowl again and noticed that. TO had it already called to run that fullback and it usually worked well. Quote Link to comment

Another way of looking at is the QB never read both the tackle AND the end. Quote Link to comment
