Stumpy1 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 We're gonna go playground ball on them. Taylor is going to draw the plays up on his hand in the huddle. Kenny, you run 9 yrds, cut this way then run back to me. Q, I want you to run a drag 1 yrd off the LOS and then cut to the corner. JT, I want you to go for a fly. Ameer, stay and block then go out and run around and get open. Ready , Break 1 Quote Link to comment
Abdullah the Butcher Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The wildcat has not been regularly used since the 2010 season. They went away from it in 2011 with more diamond and pistol sets. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The wildcat has not been regularly used since the 2010 season. They went away from it in 2011 with more diamond and pistol sets. We ran wildcat against Penn State in 2011 at least. I'm moderately certain we saw it in at least one other game but I can't recall. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 We don't run "wildcat" because Martinez is the most dangerous runner we have. Most teams run wildcat to make the "quarterback" a running threat but we have no need for that. 1 Quote Link to comment
Abdullah the Butcher Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Martinez seems a lot more timid thus far. He is not hitting the gaps he has in the past. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Martinez seems a lot more timid thus far. He is not hitting the gaps he has in the past. It looks like we just haven't needed him that much. With the receivers and backs we have, options plays, zone reads and designed QB runs aren't as necessary as they may have once been. I like us on the zone read with TM, but I hope we stay far away from the traditional option from under center. I've never felt TM runs that very effectively. Quote Link to comment

I like us on the zone read with TM, but I hope we stay far away from the traditional option from under center. I've never felt TM runs that very effectively. After re-watching the S. Miss game, there is no doubt that he's had strict instructions not to run unless absolutely necessary. There were two times where we ran counter-trey action (pulling both the backside guard and tackle) where the play was definitely set up to be a QB run following the pulling lineman but instead it was handed off to Abdullah going the other way. We'll turn Martinez loose tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I think with Imani getting snaps at FB, we could see a couple of quick hitters from him up the gut. Circa Rex Burkhead in 2011, think the Ohio State game. I like getting Cross in at FB. Gives us the potential to bust big ones up up the gut and gives defenses one more thing to prep for. Plus when we have Taylor joining the mix next year it will be hard to get everyone reps at I-back. Would be great to get some use out of Cross at FB and H-back. I'm interested to see what we've been holding-back for this game, especially on D. Quote Link to comment
Ziebol Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 So far this year we have predominantly seen 3 wide with a RB and TE. Any chance of seeing 5 wide? 4 wide diamond formation in the backfield. We've seen all those, although the five wide might have still been using a RB lined up as a WR. I could do without the overload look we like to use. Seemed like we ran that about half the time in the second half against Wyoming. Would like more Two Men and The Truck and single back with the zone read this week. 5 wide.....QB draw Yeah, that or draw action with a downfield past to Bell or Turner or Enunwa or Westerkamp or Moore or Burtch or Allen or Abdullah or Newby or Nobler? Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixon, Comment, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen. Comet* Quote Link to comment
Ziebol Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Great now I'm trying stuck trying to figure how we could make a Rudolph parody for our offense. You know Ameer, Imani, Kenny, and Quincy. Turner and Allen, J-West and Newby. But will defenses recall, the most dangerous of them all. Taylor, the dual threat quarterback.... Way too much free time at work. Quote Link to comment
grandpasknee Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I expect by late 1st or early 2nd quarter we'll see UCLA offensive formations where no one wants to get the ball. Quote Link to comment
jamrinelli Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 How bout this What happened on that play? Time out skins? Vick hit Cooper up top for a screen with some big blockers out in front of him.... Quote Link to comment
jamrinelli Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Martinez seems a lot more timid thus far. He is not hitting the gaps he has in the past. I think come BIG play Martinez will run more. The staff will become more comfortable with the back up situation... Quote Link to comment
