Do we ever pull a guard during running plays?

I haven't seen it this season, yet. Have I simply missed it or our guards not not athletic enough?

i swear i've seen pocic pull as a G or C vs Wisc but can't remember the exact play.

i know big help. but i think we have in general.

also on LF7's run down left sideline vs ULM. that play was all blocking.

I can't recall any counters or trap plays which would require a pulling guard. It would have to be the RT b/c the LT won't get there in time.

yes. though I don't think we've run power this yr as much as used to, that's generally been our bread and butter run play.

Yes. I remember that play. Perfect blocking on that play.

Yes, we did it a bunch against Wisconsin in the shotgun in the first half.

I had this thought also, so I re watched some games. They haven't done it much but they have. Most have been inside pulls, I don't think I've seen a guard pull and get to the outside around the edge.

If Pocic is now the RG instead of Fanaika, then I think you'll see more pulling from that spot. I don't think Hoko is quick enough.

Are you kidding? The O-line has enough trouble standing in one place already, so asking them to be agile and pull would be too much. I'm trying to be kind here. I mentioned no one.
