The argument for the Hurricanes is so weak but hey not everyone will agree, there's ALWAYS doubters.
Well, I was going from the link below. Maybe I will change it to "rarely if ever". 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.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.

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.Not bad, may want to change one thing though.

Huh??!!!
gotta love the fullback trap playI was watching the 96 fiesta bowl again and noticed that. TO had it already called to run that fullback and it usually worked well.
Another way of looking at is the QB never read both the tackle AND the end.Landlord of Memorial Stadium said: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.Blackshirtsguru said:Blackshirt316 said:Not bad, may want to change one thing though.
